July 2016: Portfolio Update.

FTSE outpacing me again in July with a 3.38% gain v. my more pedestrian 2.52% gain.
A bounce from William Hill and further double digit contributions from Apple, IG, Microsoft, and Banco Santander.
It has to be said that having held back for months before finally believing in the story and investing, Banco Santander is turning into another disappointment following the cut in its dividend which was the story and had seemed enshrined in stone before the change in control at the top.

Another strange month for dividends with GE once again the only contribution.

The big news from elsewhere being that having come back from holiday we are now looking to move house so the property search begins.
