Calculating my portfolio's yield

[Horace Cugle]

Total annual dividends/the current portfolio value = portfolio current yield. It's basically the as how you would calculate a single stock's yield just cumulative for all stocks.

For yield on cost take the total annual dividends/total cost of the positions, do not include reinvested dividends, only the original cost plus any new buys. And of course update any dividend increases.

Hope that helps.
