June 2024 Result
The chart below shows the change in my assets. The rightmost point on the chart is the amount of assets at the end of June 2024, which is 42 million yen (about $0.263 million). The month-over-month change in assets was +6.06%.
At the time of the last disclosure, the calculation was based on ¥150/$, but this time it is based on ¥160/$. While assets have increased in terms of Japanese yen, assets in dollar terms have changed little (OMG…).
Stock prices rose toward the end of June.
In June, the Nikkei 225 remained mostly unchanged but showed an uptick at the end of the month.
As of this writing, the first week of July trading is over, and the momentum of the last stock market rally in June has continued through the first week of July. As a result, the valuation of my holdings is also at its highest as of July 7.
June is the month when most dividends are earned.
Most Japanese companies close their books at the end of March. Therefore, the dividend, based on the month of the fiscal year, comes in in June. The dividend received in June this year was 450,000 yen (about $2,866) after taxes.
Also, the bonus from the company I work for was 470,000 (about $2938) after tax.
My assets have increased largely due to the addition of stock dividends and a bonus from my company.
Finally
June was an uninteresting month, as there were no major incidents or accidents, but this is the kind of month you can expect if you are a long-term investor. July is the beginning of the second quarter for companies whose fiscal year ends in March, and companies will be compiling their first quarter (April-June) earnings releases. I hope that the revenues and profits of my holdings are good.
