Stocks Of The Month: AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, TSLA

If you thought my 2017 purchases (and posts) were redundant...well, 2018 is going to be more of the same.

I bought more of my two favorite stocks, NVIDIA (NVDA) and Tesla (TSLA); and two of my favorite dividend-payers, Apple (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT) - the latter of which I have achieved my allocation target, so that I may concentrate in future months on the former three.

Apple might take 8 months of consecutive purchases to reach my goal. Tesla and NVIDIA, no doubt interrupted by other investment goals, might take a minimum of 2 years. (Yeah, future posts are going to get really redundant.)

Here's my current portfolio (buy and hold). As always, I believe in all of these stocks - until I sell them.
