I see that you are still selectively picking dates to try to support you argument.  Try rereading the first sentence of your original post.

You still haven't explained why since Trump was elected (your words were 'enthusiasm over Trump' I believe) I have hit 6 record high portfolio balances in 8 weeks?  (I calculate my portfolio's value every Friday)

Even though the equity portion of my portfolio is 51% utilities and REITs?

For the record the remaining 10.7% of my portfolio is in cash/bonds.  (The portion that isn't equities)

Oh, and by the way, I doubt you considered dividends paid in your calculations.  Remember, dividends paid are an integral part of dividend investing.
