Loyal3 Investment Update

The Clever Investor: Loyal3 Update – 02/17/2016

My stocks got absolutely hammered last month, but that didn’t stop me from staying the course with my investments. I took the perspective that stocks were on sale, and I should buy while prices were low. Eventually the market, and the value of my stocks, will go up and I’ll reap the rewards. So, last month I added $25 worth of stock for my favorite wing restaurant, and $25 worth of Apple stock.

Before looking at the specifics of how my stocks performed over the last 30 days, let’s review the rules for my Clever Investor game:

• Investments are made using the 100% Free investment platform, Loyal3 which allows me to invest in increments as low as $10.
• I will invest an additional $50 a month, budget willing, based upon results
• Results are reviewed in the middle of the month (approximately)

Here we go!
