APRIL 1996
Onto April 96. SHARE PRICE is $18.12, up $2 from last month up. Go to columns 8 and 9. You bought 21 shares last month so your SHARES OWNED has increased from 415 to 436. PORTFOLIO CONTROL will increase since we did buy stock. Divide 334 by 2 and add that amount to PORTFOLIO CONTROL (334 divided by two = 167 + 7,695 equals 7,862). Write these two numbers in. SHARE VALUE is 436 X $18.12 equals $7,903. SAFE is 790. CASH is $7,918 - $3 34 + $30 INTEREST = $7,622. Again compare PORTFOLIO CONTROL and SHARE VALUE and SHARE VALUE is slightly higher. Do your calculations:
All that's left is to figure is PORTFOLIO VALUE. It's $7,903 + $7,622 = $15,525. So on this example that is a real stock, you would be ahead 55% for two years. Study this example and you'll see how you make your profit. The stock went steadily up for almost 2 years. Buy low and sell high shouldn't only be a cliché. It should and is put into practice through the system and produces the results you want from an investment.
