The S&P 500 has been relatively flat since the last update, down slightly 0.08% during that time:

On the jobs front, the unemployment rate for June rose to 4.4%, with a strong number of jobs (222,000) created. Oil prices have continued to fall to the current $44 level, which corresponds to several local gas stations selling regular unleaded for $2.09.

On the financial front, my asset levels have reached an all-time high for the EIGHTH month in a row, breaking the previous high from June 2017. As for money moves, the only potential transaction on my radar screen is a possible S Corp distribution later this month.

As for the non-financial, we're enjoying the warm summer weather and are planning a brief vacation later this month. We're also at the point where my eldest child has started looking at colleges. Where does the time go?
