New purchase

I've started the year by investing in another company Kraft Heinz which is a food company with many famous products. The company was created after a merger of Kraft and Heinz in 2015. 

• 5 O for $ 54.82 for a yield of 4.66 %.
• 3 PM for $ 104.97 for a yield of 4.07 %.
• 8 KHC for $ 78.49 for a yield of 3.18 %.

I've updated my portfolio and as always it can be found here.

Income/expense December 2017

So I spent a lot of money in December, but also got a bit of a bonus.

Expenses: 21 000 SEK
Income:  40 900 SEK
Savings rate: 48.66 %
Dividend/Expense rate: 2.62 %

A summary of my savings rate can be found via this page where you can see that my total savings rate was about 50 %. My goal was 70 % so I missed by quite a lot. I guess I might have been doing a bit too much traveling (if there is such a thing). Something I've learned from missing my goals is that should set the bar a bit lower.

Dividend December 2017

Here is the summary of the dividends that I received for December, the last month of the year. 

• SDIV 31.07 SEK
• SRET 30.89 SEK
• SPFF 62.04 SEK 
• SDEM 17.07 SEK
• KO 31.36 SEK
• ED 35.09 SEK
• EMR 40.99 SEK

• VFC 34.84 SEK
• ALIV-SDB 25.17 SEK
• ALA 36.08 SEK
• EIF 28.83 SEK
• AD 31.14 SEK

For a total of 549.82 SEK. An decline of 10 % since the previous quarter. The total dividend for 2017 ended up in being 5439.24 SEK. I've published the distribution for 2017 below. It is far from the 12 000 SEK that was my goal, but I'm still happy :).

New purchases

Another purchase right before Christmas.

• 9 ELISA for € 32.77 for a yield of 4.58 %.

I've also bought some German stocks during the fall, but I've managed to  remove the first blog post. I'll try to recreate that somehow. Anyway I'm really close to a projected dividend of $ 1200.
