So, that's that. Another year in the books. S&P 500 finished the year -19.44%, or -18.11% with dividends included in the total return. I'll figure out my annual returns soon. Good news is I gave the S&P 500 a good whooping this year, but the bad news is I was still down about 5%. Berkshire Hathaway, my top position, being up 2.7%, and Lockheed Martin, my 4th largest position, being up 37.3% + dividends (!!!!) really helped out my portfolio this year.
Here's a sector breakdown for the S&P 500 this year:

#3: Consumer Staples -3.17%
#4: Health Care -3.55%
