Due in some small part to its own upward movement over the past week, VZ has become overweighted. Therefore, it is the only stock ineligible for additional investment. There is no sector imbalance at this time. The VZ restriction does not affect us as it did not make the Top Ten. The lowest amount above belongs to GRC and it last traded at $37.98. Therefore, in order to invest a minimum of $250 in GRC, I need to purchase 7 shares on Monday. See the 2024-09-07 post for the shallowest of deep dives into GRC’s long-term performance. Below, is the purchase history and average cost calculation.

While there is no position-specific overweighting in the portfolio, there is an overweighting associated with the top 10 most heavily weighted sectors. This is an awkward way of saying Industrials are underweight and is the only sector eligible for additional investment at this time. However, since the lowest amount above belongs to GRC, which is the one industrial stock in the portfolio, the sector restriction does not affect this week’s investment. GRC last traded at $35.47. Therefore, in order to invest a minimum of $250 in GRC, I need to purchase 8 shares on Monday. Below, is the purchase history and average cost calculation.

In addition to the usual $250+ weekly investment, there is over $250 ($282.09 to be exact) of uninvested income in the account and one lucky position will be the recipient of all that cold, hard cash. This week, four of the portfolio holdings ranked in the Top Ten: FMCB, PPG, SJW, and VZ.
