2021 Perfect Portfolio Competition Spreadsheet

Time to check how we have done in the first half. I'm glad to see that everyone is in the green!

It doesn't look like this spreadsheet is taking dividend reinvestment into account.  For instance, ORC may be exactly flat; $5.22 on 12/31/2020 and $5.22 now, but that 14%+ dividend is why it was listed in the first place.

WAY too complicated.  Dividends are only considered at all in the event of a tie breaker per our rules.  Trying to keep this simple since it's just for fun.  Spinoffs and other shenanigans could make it hard.  We deal with that if it's actually that close at the end.

I will remind you of the Stock returns with dividend reinvestment calculator website.

I just plugged ORC in since 12/30/2020: starting with $10,000, it is now $10,700.43.

But no worries like you said it's all for fun anyway.

We are using Eric's spreadsheet he bothered to enter all our stuff into.  Of course dividends do matter but the first two years our contest wasn't very close, and you are killing us so far this year.  We'll mop it up and make sure we have the top 5 right.
