STOCKS
This was the first year I got into stocks. I've put in $5,200 since September, and it's currently sitting at just under $6,500. I own stock in 50 different companies, and overall it was a successful year in all sectors, with very few notable losers. 27 of my 50 stocks gained greater than 10% since my purchase, and of the other 23 I own, none of them are have lost 10%. My biggest loser was Nikola, which I finally got out of later than I should have. Biggest winners by percentage (all of which are up over 100%) have been Tesla (of course), Capri Holdings (Jimmy Choo, other luxury brands), and Chesapeake Energy (never going to reach anywhere near what it once was, but a sentimental pick I put a small amount in). Overall, my only regrets are not jumping on the crash in March and buying low, and not buying more Tesla. Alas, hindsight is 20/20.
MUTUAL FUNDS
I've had an Edward Jones mutual funds account with unused college money brewing for a while. A nice spread amongst CWGIX (American Capital World Growth), AMECX (American Inc Fund of America), and AIVSX (American Investment Funds). Came into the year at just over $44k, walked out with just over $49k.
ROTH IRA
Been contributing to the wife and my Roth IRA through Vanguard the last 2 years (wish we started earlier, but oh well). Got everything in VFIFX (Vanguard Target Retirement 2050). Made a little over $4200 last year. Have contributed the max $24k since starting it and sitting on a bit over $30k.
403B
Got a bunch of different holdings in my Roth 403b through residency. Vanguard Institutional Fund, some more American Funds stuff, and some CREF equities. Had a 23.4% rate of return last year overall on this one. Up to just under $50k.
CRYPTOCURRENCY
I'm cheating a bit and counting the continued surge past New Year's. I bought in $4k to Bitcoin and Ethereum (83% Bitcoin, 17% Ethereum) back before the big surge at the end of 2017. That was at about $6k at the beginning of December (still not a bad ROI!) but is at this moment worth $13.6k. I'm not so bold/crazy/revolutionary/whatever as to think crypto is going to change the face of currency, and that in the future we'll all be using it to make actual purchases. But I do plan to hold on to what I've got until I retire, and I suspect it will be worth a good deal then.
Overall a very good year for my investments in a wide range of vehicles. My gold and silver continued to do well, and I still have some ancient savings bonds that I can't bring myself to cash in early because they're bringing in a guaranteed 4% for another couple years (even though I am well aware I would almost certainly make more than that if I put it into any of my other holdings; I'm a sucker for a little bit of guaranteed income).
Retirement holdings sitting currently at just under $143,000. I've got another 1.5 years of residency and hope to be around $225k by the end (I'll contribute $30k to Roth holdings this year and ~$21k in 2022 before finishing residency), so should hit that target. I'm "only" 30 and, while I should be on target to be able to live comfortably retiring at 50, I'm planning to wait it out until about 55 so we can live a little more high on the hog.
