Dear all, 

The above table shows the returns after about 7 years of investment in the chosen stock since we started in January 2012. All prices above are for 1 share.

As you can see, the total dividends collected for past 7 years is $83.60, a good 28% of invested funds.
The 2018 dividend yield for all the chosen shares is 5.24%.

Excluding dividend, our investment value compounded 11.01% for the past 7 years. The best investment is still Disney and Starbucks, both compounding at about 18% for past 7 years.
$10,000 invested in these 2 stocks would have reached a value of $31.854.74 today. If you were to sell the shares of Disney today, you would receive $34,157.46.

Meanwhile, we shall just relax and wait for the next investment update.

Cheers.
