As the stock market roared to new record highs this January, it became progressively harder to find companies that offered a great value. Because of that, I focused on making purchases in the companies I spent money at. That's part of my goal I posted about earlier back in August.
Then the Coronavirus hit, and the stock market hit a rough patch, which actually creates bargains for some solid companies. By that time, I had already spent most of my earnings and have decided to sit on it for a bit in order to see how the market shakes out and well as earning more so I can make a purchase of impact.
I used to wait until I had $1500 to make a single purchase. Now that fees no longer exist, I started making many smaller purchases. I think there is an emotional lift when buying many shares over a bunch of small purchases. I crave that dopamine rush...
As you can see below, I have not purchases any shares since January 16th. And I focuses on meeting my goals of buying shares at companies I spend $ at.
I bought what is equivalent for 98% of what I spent at Bed Bath and Beyond (BBBY) in 2019. I am at 28% of what I spent on my AT&T bill.
Next month will be interesting!
Till then, CHEERS!
