For this week, the PIC Buy and Hold portfolio shows an 8.6% profit overall with less than a full 12 months of investing on average. This far exceeds the NASDAQ Composite or the DOW Industrials over the same period.

The AIM/PIC list is doing even better. It is showing a 14.8% Profit on the same investments. It's current Equity/Cash ratio is 74% invested, 26% in reserve. The following trades were performed in this theoretical account this week:

Sold 10 shares of CCU at $51.38 (34.8% LIFO gain in three months)
Sold 21 shares of CGNX at $27.15 (41% LIFO gain in three months)
Sold 21 shares of INTC at $35.91 (67% LIFO gain in three months)
Sold 25 shares of MCRS at $27.13 (50.7% LIFO gain in three months)
Sold 78 shares of SCH at $18.05 (43.9% LIFO gain in three months)
Sold 45 shares of ZQK at $18.52 (25.9% LIFO gain in just three weeks)

These solid realized gains have improved the Cash Reserve level of the overall account and reduced the overall risk exposure of the account. Not many other methods would have done this and still kept significant investment in the same equities. The account is now at a new all time high value and still has lots of shares left to sell should we see a favorable market in 2002.

Only four of the AIM/PIC stocks are still showing a loss since being started during the last year. TEN of the Buy and Hold PIC candidates are at losses. Again Active Management is winning over Buy and Hold.

Best regards, Tom
