October Week 1 Account Review

No new trades were added this week.

TQQQ is up about 4.5% week-over-week.

TSLY is also up over 1% week-over-week.

DLR is also up slightly.

This week's gains in TQQQ and TSLY resulted in a slight decrease in the cash ratio.

The equity ratio is still at 90%.

Total assets are up about $2500 from last week.

The current war between Israel and Palestine could lead to another round of buying.

The swing seat is up about $1300 from the previous week.

The current POOL is about $3002.

The total investment ratio is 60%.

The Nasdaq 100  is up about 1.6% from last week.

The return on total assets is 12.38%.

TSLY's total return is -0.32%.

The October dividend plays a big role.

The current POOL is $120 due to the October dividend.

Losses were also down about $40 from the previous week.

You can see that the October dividend did well compared to TSLY's adjustment.

The payout ratio increased to 45% to reflect the October dividend.

I've organized my current stocks in one place.

Above is a US account and below is a Canadian account.

Total assets are just over $56,000.

It's still a negative total asset.

Above is a chart showing the monthly rise and fall of the  Nasdaq 100 index.

In September, the Nasdaq 100 fell 5.08%.

You can see that the drop in August continued into September.

Here's hoping that October will be a little better.

TQQQ is down about 16% for the month of September.

It's the dreaded month of September.

It has been negative in September for the last four years.

I wonder if we'll see a dramatic uptick in October.

But then the Israeli-Palestinian war happened.

There are signs that the adjustment is going to be a bit longer.

Still, I'm holding out a little hope.
