My Portfolio Investment Returns - Q1 2013 Update

2013 has been a great start for buy and hold passive investors like me. The YTD returns are close to yearly averages and we are only in the beginning of the second quarter. Keeping an eye on the long- term returns, I wanted to start tracking returns of my portfolio every quarter.

At this time, I am not making any changes to my portfolio. I did re-balancing at the beginning of the year and will wait until later in the year for another re-balancing if market is still up at that time. Other than this, I continue to do automated investing every day. This allows me to capture the ups and downs of the market in a very efficient manner. This also forces me to stay out of buy and sell decisions.
