Made my first purchase with reinvested dividends in this account as I added a speculative play with 20 shares of GT Advanced Technologies (GTAT) last week at $16.95 per share.
The company is expected to be the new supplier for Apple iPhones with its "Sapphire Glass". The company also has some innovations in solar panels that are expected to ramp up in 2015.
Its purely a speculative play that I think has the potential for plenty of upside. The investment isn't off to a very good start as I'm currently down 12% on the buy, but this is a long term investment so I'm not too concerned about it yet.
Here is a link to the portfolio.

Overall the account is doing pretty well as its up 17.9% since 8-12-2013, which beats the DJIA and S&P, while slightly trailing Nasdaq.
