Are these accounts holding mostly index funds/ETF or individual stocks? Looks like the performance of each is significantly different -1.03 to +7.81% is quite a range in terms of performance.

@2million It is a mix of index funds and individual stocks. If I was giving advice I would recommend that everyone have the vast majority of their investment index funds, but I’ve sort of taken a liking to individual stocks and have a lot more in individual stocks than I would recommend for someone else.
My wife’s account grew so much that month due to fairly large holdings in Dolby and Netflix. Also the -1.03% performance for my traditional IRA can be explained by a fairly large position in Buffalo Wild Wings
BTW thanks for stopping by and commenting – your blog was one of the main reasons I created this blog back in 2005.
