I don’t want to deal with delisted shares, I had a couple hundred shares, sold all, took a $0.18 loss after already collected dividends.
Picked up a rather large tranche of NEWTH yesterday ay $24.40 – goes ex-div Monday and pays Tuesday. We shall see if I got a decent price.
Got hit rather noticeably yesterday and now my “conservative” portfolios are down 1.2% on the year. But jockeying this week, I was able to get in/out of things at favorable levels to increase my annual expected income by almost 10% (9.3%)
My trading account is up 11.1% so far on the year but represents only 5% of my entire suite of portfolio values so it contribution only gets me to about even for the year.
