Here’s a list of my positions, in approximate order from largest to smallest, though the variations between relative sizes are decreasing as time wears on and I get these longer positions built up. We’ll have some shorter-term and newer name trades in coming weeks to complement these longer-term positions. Longs – GLW Nuance Riverbed […]

It’s a flattish to higher open, but we’ve got our two most volatile tech names of late, Cypress and Riverbed, both up more than 3%. Recall yesterday that I wrote the following about Riverbed: Long-time subscribers know that I have been pounding the table on this one since it was in the low teens, but […]

It’s a pretty bloody red open this morning, after Hewlett-Packard pulled a Cisco and guided lower for the second quarter in a row. HPQ’s getting killed and so is most of tech, but speaking of Cisco, it and a few other longs of ours are up today despite the ugly market. Google, instead of being […]

What one stock taketh away, another giveth. (Flip it.) The hits we’re taking in Cisco and Celestica are being countered by the profits in Riverbed and Silver. Most of the rest of the portfolio is hardly budging and that means our portfolio is flat-to-slightly down on the day, much like the broader markets. I find […]

Cisco and silver are each down almost 5% in the early action. On the conference call cisco CEO guided slightly lower again for next quarter for the fourth time in a row. I am digging through their report and others but the upshot is that I plan to hold my cisco position steady. We were […]

Flattish day for the portfolio by the close. After the close though, our second largest position, Cisco, reported very strong earnings and the stock is up 3%. That said, we won’t know how the stock will trade tomorrow until we hear from Cisco CEO, John Chambers, on the upcoming conference call in which he’ll give […]

Silver has dislocated itself to the downside again today, losing almost 5% this morning and making our SLV puts pop. Gold down. It sure seems to me that silver and not gold is the driver of the direction of the precious metals everyday. Nice gains in the portfolio again this morning and I’ve not pulled […]

Email from a subscriber: –First of all, CY, and now NUAN have many times over paid for my subscription, with every other trade above water, except RVBD. Could you post a brief response to the following question” If one has suggested to a friend to sign on, or has not bought any particular stock either […]
