p. 1; second figure:
investment 1 lost $61.20 for the month
investments 2-6 = $ 44177.40 at months end with a $822.60 loss.

Q1: How is it that I invest $45,000 and lose almost a $1000?
Q2: Why would all the new buys lose?
This also seems to mean none of the investments earned any income for this month. Q3: Is that possible or common?

Thank You In Advance-

What are you investing them in, if you had to pay large commissions out of them in some.

Also what are you investing them in, stocks, bonds, or what.

I am doing good this year but over the last three years many investments have lost about 10 to 30 percent of their investments.

So yes in some markets losing a lot fast is comon.

I am sorry. I thought I had added an attachment to explain my questions.

well, I attached it like before, though I do not see it after I close the upload window.

thank you for the answer, but unless you can see the attachment, I doubt I can make my question clear for you.

these were CDs. Example: CD bought 10,000 @ 1.00 = $10,0000 / end of month = $9963.00

why would it lose $37.00? I had bought 5 CDs, each lost some amount by the end of the same month. One of them loses every month.

I too have found that so far the month of April has not been kind to bond investments. Interest rates have risen a bit in April, and rising interest rates always hurt the market value of fixed income investments. Usually when investing in CDs or individual bonds your objective is to hold these to maturity, at which point you get the face value back. If that's what you're doing, then don't worry too much about month-to-month market fluctuations.
