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 […]

After having flagged them as I was doing them for you dear subscribers, I’ve still got my GLD and SLV puts which have some big profits on them. I just added to the hedge of those a by adding some more DBA. Here’s what the DBA profile is: The investment seeks to track the price […]

What a week it was. Lots of back and forth and grind, but the stock markets end up just about flat on the week as we head into the final contra-hour of the week. Our portfolio actually had a pretty good week though, much better than the broader markets, with our silver, Riverbed and Nuance […]

Let’s review what I’ve been doing to re-build my portfolio in broad terms. From a strategic standpoint, I’ve been buying the best companies I can find in the App Revolution and the Cloud Revolution which I think will explode into a new bubble in coming years and I’ve complimented those longs with long positions in […]

The markets have fallen hard intraday, though it’s not a full 2% intraday swing and thus doesn’t meet the worrisome “dislocation” threshold. Regardless, the green on our sheets from this morning has mostly faded to red, though our SLV puts are now more profitable than ever after today’s 7% collapse in silver. Silver’s playing out […]

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 […]

I did not trade today, but we had a nice pop in the portfolio despite the (as expected) moves in Silver and Gold going against us today. Corning was up more than 3% itself and as that and Nuance are two of our largest positions, we made out pretty green on the day. More on […]

Silver and gold are both up today, silver up 4%, gold up 1%. We covered our common stock short position and still have nice gains on our puts. I am not doing anything with silver and gold today, but were silver to get back closer to $40 again, I’ll likely look to add to the […]
