June 2017 Fiscal Update

In an interesting turn of events the Canadian dollar is showing signs of strength. It gained against the US dollar and the British pound. This is a double edged sword. The good news is my wealth is greater since I have more purchasing power. 🙂 The bad news is my net worth in Canadian dollars went down. 🙁

Since I have investments in foreign currency my assets fell in value. Oh well. I’m not cashing out any time soon so I will continue to hold and see what happens. Energy companies also lost value in June, following lower oil prices. I also purchased a vehicle in cash that cost over $1,000. It was expensive, but it’s important to have a life. 🙂

This is the worst month I’ve had in over a year, lol. It looks like my fixed income assets performed well at least. Hopefully I can turn things around in July and get back to increasing my net worth.

June was a pretty rough month for my investments too! My NW barely budged. Stay the course and you’ll do fine in the long run.

Cheers!

You’re still doing pretty darn good for the worst month of the year! I inputted my assessed value for my condo and you’re still beating me in the NW game!
