09.23.12
Hi Folks,
The CPA compiled results, for the 12.06.2011 - 09.23.2012 time frame, is a +18.93% net return. This reflects all hedging losses. The accrued dividends are $580.68 and are not reflected in the returns. The cash balance is $1,853.50. The $100,000 Model Portfolio's value is a net $118,932.10. The accrued dividend data is provided at the end of the newsletter. Capital preservation is the portfolio's cornerstone goal. We are up $7,453 on option income in the option newsletter portion - thru August's option expiration.
The Dividend Lab newsletter cost will be increasing to new members in the future. I will also, due to time constraints and diverse investing goals, have a new service for those seeking capital share appreciation. I will not increase the annual subscription price to current members.
These issues are discussed on the forum.
Best,
Todd Johnson, Editor
