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 … [Read more...] about Here’s a list of my positions, in approx…

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 any triggers so far today. As noted by one of our loyal subscribers, … [Read more...] about Silver has dislocated itself to the down…

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 the Nuance below and other than that, thanks for reading and I'll see ya manana. Some more details on … [Read more...] about I did not trade today, but we had a nic…

Shorting gold and silver today. But first -- one of our loyal subscribers writes me: "If we are long term, is today not a day to buy a little more across the board?" The answer depends on you and what you're trying to do with your own portfolio. My mission here is to show you how this former hedge fund manager and 15 year Wall Street veteran is re-building his own … [Read more...] about Shorting gold and silver today. But firs…

It's a flattish open, but the story of the day is the 15% drop, the crushing of RIMM. I've kept us out of RIMM and even had it as a short position in the Revolution Investing model portfolio last year before I started trading again where we rode it down from over $100 to some big profits before covering. Microsoft is down a couple percent after reporting a strong quarter, but … [Read more...] about It’s a flattish open, but the story of t…

Steady betty market this morning, and other than Corning putting on another rally there's little movement in our portfolio this morning. Amazon is up 4% after what could have been considered a "worse than expected' report, and that "tells" us once again something about what to expect in the action in the stocks that we have that haven't yet reported. I'll list the dates of … [Read more...] about Steady betty market this morning, and ot…
