October 2016: Portfolio Update

A bounce in my fortunes with a gain of 3.49% in the month.
The FTSE recording a lesser 0.8% but staying ahead for the year with 11.4% v. my 10.89%. I'm close, but no cigar!

One of the contributing factors could well be that I haven't yet reinvested all of the R-R proceeds.

Hit by the dreaded inactivity fee again!
Minor dividends from GE and IG, but a further step towards being fully invested again with an investment in Berkeley Group which immediately becomes a not insignificant 6.35% of my portfolio.
But will it be in time to catch the FTSE before the year-end!

By the way I am still looking for a house.
