Oh lala, look who's only getting richer, richer and richer... ME

These days, the weather is quite awesome in Montreal, so I am spending a lot of time outside, and I try to stay out of my laptop as much as possible. But now, I feel I have to write a little something because I finally make it: I now have over 300k in net worth!

My numbers are quite good today. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $125,614.40, my TFSA portfolio at $118,040.48 and my RRSP portfolio at $58,102.02. I can say for sure that I am still sitting on a 300k net worth at present. Fun! 

Last week, my $300,799.45 net worth had been a nice surprise. With a now solid 300k net worth, I am happy to have a margin debt under the 50k. My margin debt is currently at $47,215.34. I have at my disposal a good $32,219.30 as money available on my margin, to invest partly if I want... or spend. But of course, I will do neither of those things. With a TSX close to the 20,000 points, it's not time to invest. Now is the time to enjoy the summer and just watch the TSX doing its magic. My bet worth is probably currently exceeding the 300k. Maybe not by that much, but exceeding.

I did a great job saving my bucks in May, I hope to do the same in June. Right now, I am dying for a haircut. I don't want to have long hair anymore, I just hate it. I have a dentist appointment later on in July, but thanks to my insurance, it won't cost me much. Yesterday morning, at BNN's The Open, Amber Amber Kanwar announced live that the TSX hit on the 20,005 points. It was quite an event! It was quite exciting, but it somewhat felt kind of weird at the same time to watch the TSX reaching the 20,000 points for the real first time. All I can say is, enjoy it, because each day is a different day on the TSX.

Now is a good time to save money, pay down your margin or debt if you have any, make some savings. And later on, when a correction happens, it will be time to invest again.

June had kicked in, but some things are still going on, the TSX is not a boring place to be. Morneau Shepell Inc. (MSI) had changed its name to LifeWorks Inc. (LWRK). It was the right thing to do because personally, with all the drama surrounding Finance Minister Bill Morneau's exist, I wasn't pretty much a fan of Morneau Shepell Inc. (MSI). I didn't sell and it's only for money: both of my current capital gain and the dividend I earn from that investment are just too good.

I also had another great surprise yesterday morning with Pembina Pipeline Corporation (PPL) who's trying to make an acquisition. PPL had been in my portfolio since my early beginning. When PPL gains in value, that means big bucks to me because PPL is not a small investment in my non-registered portfolio. With their new acquisition, PPL announced a happy dividend increase. However, it's not sure that the so wanted acquisition will happen or not, it's all complicated. PPL is a Derek Foster stock.

There you go! It's now official, I now have a net worth of $300,799.45!!!

FINALLY! I pop it up to the 300k for the first time ever. I am just really happy I could make it before turning 41. At a point, I wasn't too sure...

A date to remember this happen today, on May 26, 2021.

Reaching my highest net worth EVER on May 20, 2021: $298,486.93

Happy Victoria Day investors!

 

I am slowly getting there. On the date of May 20, 2021, I am only missing $1,513.07 before hitting on my first $300,000 net worth. For this past Friday, my numbers closed the session on lower results. My non-registered portfolio closed at $123,916.36, my US portfolio at $4,417.17 USD, my TFSA portfolio at $114,838.54 and my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $57,629.86. I currently have $423.24 in cash inside my RRSP portfolio that is coming from dividend distribution. Between May 20 and now, my margin debt increased to $48,243.32 (interests). With all the drama surrounding Bitcoin and Ether, I may not be able to reach the 300k anytime soon, but I am ok with that.

This week I received a super big paycheck and my next one should as good. My only problem was: what should I do with that money? It didn't take me long. I decided to pay down my margin by 1k and to put $600 aside in my saving accounts. My savings are now located in 3 separate accounts, in 3 different institutions. My margin debt is currently $47,243.32. I would like to see that amount reduced to under 40k.

I did a good job for the past couple of weeks at trying to control my expenses. To do so, my goal is not to spend money on any clothes for this summer, no haircut, no pedicure or manicure, and no spending money on whatever products that I don't need. It happens that I like to spend some money on hair and beauty products, makeup... My main goal for the summer is not to spend any money on clothes, and not get any hair cut. Clothes can be expensive. I was quickly looking over some clothes the other day at Gap - without buying noting - and it shocks me how clothes can be expensive when they are not on sale and when you look at the price tag correctly. There something about the great weather that just makes a girl spend some money on clothes for no good reason, other than just spending money around. These days, going out for coffee is my only luxury.

I am pretty much living like in my younger days when saving money used to be so important for me. The trick is to just keep going.

I find a brand new investment idea on Stockopedia: Stelco Holdings Inc. (STLC)

Please note that I had been writing on this post for the past couple of days, but haven't been able to finish it until now.

For the past couple of days, Montreal weather is just very awesome and I had been walking around, trying to do some physical activities while the gym is still closed. Believe it or not, I even wake up early. I try to walk for about 45 minutes before starting my day. I like this kind of spring weather, it's hot, but not too hot, and in the morning, the weather is perfect for runners.

With the TSX closing this past Friday with 19,366.69, I got good numbers for my investment portfolios, good, but not good enough to hit the $300,000. It's just not happening yet. My non-registered portfolio closed this past Friday session at $124,793.07, my US portfolio at $4,448.21, my TFSA portfolio at $115,363.34 and my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $57,143.00. My margin debt is at $48,096.95. My annual dividend income is now at $9.602, which makes an official average of $800 per month. That number includes the dividend earns inside my RRSP portfolio.

It hasn't been a good weekend for Bitcoin and Ether. And this Monday had been especially a hard one for Bitcoin. Ether is in a much better shape, but still down. However, this evening, both Bitcoin and Ether are showing signs of recovery. Today, the TSX closed on a good 19,474.65 points. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $125,212.52, my US portfolio at $4,417.97 USD, my TFSA portfolio at $115,274.10 and my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $57,184.29. I was expecting my TFSA portfolio to be a bit lower because of the presence of Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC), Purpose Bitcoin ETF CAD ETF non-currency hedged units (BTCC.B), and 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ).

Following the value of Bitcoin and Ether is quite interesting because crypto trade 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. So while the TSX is closed, Bitcoin and Ether remain active. It makes something to look at. Currently, today on May 19, both Bitcoin and Ether are down. It not fun to watch. I already have exposure to Bitcoin and Ether via those funds I already name, and I am not looking forward to extending that exposure more than it is now, even if Bitcoin and Ether had become cheaper. And I am not looking to sell those investments for now. It's kind of scary to see how things are right now for crypto, but believe it or not, today I was quite busy and I only had time to take a quick look at the TSX and crypto and I was so disturbed that I just ignore the whole situation and barely look at my investments all day. And at a point, I had to stop listening to BNN's The Open at one point this morning so I have no idea of what Amber and Jon said today.

In my opinion, the best way to deal with a market downturn is just to ignore it. The TSX had done better than expected and closed today's session at a good 19,417.03 points. At some point during the day, the TSX was losing something like 200 points! 200 points are nothing compare to what cryptocurrencies experimented with as losses today.

In the long run, because of the presence of many funds like Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC), Purpose Bitcoin ETF CAD ETF non-currency hedged units (BTCC.B) and 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) among others are involved in crypto and on which many people invest a lot of money, I don't know which direct/indirect impact can possibly have the crypto over the TSX. Fact that Bitcoin and Ether are down may lead eventually to some direct losses over the TSX value. I prefer to see the two worlds as being separated, crypto with crypto and regular market shit with market shit lol.

My non-registered portfolio closed today - May 19 - at $124,286.67, my US portfolio at $4,387.89 USD, my TFSA portfolio at $115,308.03 and my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $57,181.63. I hold all of my crypto fund investments inside my TFSA portfolio. I taught I was going to be in the 113k there, but luckily, I hit higher.

I recently made a great finding on Stockopedia, it's a stock that I never heard of before: Stelco Holdings Inc. (STLC). STLC's overall chart is really great. Fact is, I like industrial stocks like this. I don't know if I am going to invest in STLC.

Some good news and dividend increase!

The TSX closed today's session at 19,107.77 points. My non-registered portfolio wasn't much affected by this little slide back, closing at $124,200.23. My US portfolio closed at $4,377.17 USD, my TFSA portfolio at $114,432.30 and my RRSP portfolio at 56,743.22. My margin debt is now at $48,116.32. I feel more comfortable with that amount of debt. A margin debt at $51,216.14 like I had just a few days ago was a bit too high for my taste. 

I no longer hold to some 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) units inside my non-registered portfolio, but I do hold on to some 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) units inside my TFSA portfolio. In my TFSA portfolio, ETHD is currently up by +11.40%. Bitcoin is currently down, but my investment in Bitcoin Fund The Class A units (QBTC) is on a +6.74%.

Other great things are going on. A stock that I hold inside my non-registered, TFSA, and RRSP portfolios Savaria Corporation (SIS) surf on a really good +6.805% gain today. Inside my non-registered portfolio, SIS is sitting on a +91.40%. Inside my TFSA portfolio, SIS is at +12.35%. And finally, inside my RRSP, SIS is at really good +132.36%.

ATCO Ltd. (ACO.Y) had been in my portfolio since 2017. At first, ACO.Y was from my non-registered portfolio. In 2019, I proceed with a contribution in kind, I took my ACO.Y shares and got them transferred over my TFSA portfolio.

I always love ACO.Y, but ATCO Ltd. (ACO.Y) never registered a real big gain in my portfolio. But surprise, currently, ACO.Y is on a gain of +0.23% inside my TFSA portfolio. Let's say that after a few years of holding ACO.Y, it's kind of a good start :-) Recently, ATCO Ltd. (ACO.Y) announced a deal with Suncor, to produce hydrogen. It seems like being a cool project. I also hold to Suncor Energy Inc. (SU) inside my TFSA portfolio, but only as a tiny small investment. That tiny small investment is currently on a gain, which is nice.

I hold on to some other stocks like ATCO Ltd. (ACO.Y) on which I am not making very great gain, but their value is more or less stable. I actually hold on to some stocks on which I know I won't be able to get rich on. I am thinking about Andrew Peller Limited (ADW.A) and Cascades Inc. (CAS). Other great news of the day, TMX Group Inc. (X) made a great announcement. X is increasing its dividend distribution by 10%! Currently, my annual dividend income is getting closer to $9,600.

These days, we hear a lot about inflation, but something nice is currently going on with the Canadian dollar, and is not happening without being noticed. The Canadian dollar is gaining more and more against the US dollars and it seems like we could hit on parity soon enough. If it happens, I will certainly convert some CAN $ into US $ inside my US portfolio. I am not a fan of the US, but if we have the chance to flirt with parity, I will certainly among the first ones to take advantage.

Selling my 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) shares for a little profit

When I wake up this morning, I quickly look for Ethereum (ETH) value, and what I was hoping for finally arrived! Before the opening, Ethereum (ETH) was experiencing really great gains. And while ETH is experiencing great gains, you can be sure that funds surfing on ETH will also be on great gains. So I made sure to be in front of my laptop this morning at the market opening. I wanted to sell at profit the units of 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) that I was holding, until this morning, inside my non-registered portfolio. At the opening, since my investment in ETHQ was on a few hundred gains, I quickly sell. My sell order went through right away smoothly, without any waiting time.

After commission and margin fees, I had been able to generate $371.57 in about 10 days. This is good enough for me. I preferred to sell when I could and registered a little profit, especially knowing that the money that I used to trade on 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) came from my margin, and not from my own fresh cash. I no longer hold any units of 3iQ CoinShares Ether ETF (ETHQ) inside my non-registered portfolio. However, I still hold to some ETHQ units inside my TFSA portfolio.

With the sale of my ETHQ units in my non-registered portfolio, my margin debt decreased from $51,216.14 to $48,149.63. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $124,434.04, my US portfolio at $4,478.93 USD, my TFSA portfolio at $116,264.46 and my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $57,579.74. Currently, I estimate my net worth to be in the $298,100.
