Thank you for posting your picks. It is really helpful for me as i am in a state of flux right now where I've unwound the bulk of my portfolio and am restructuring everything.

It's a bit complicated as I left my job in June and am living off of my investments for the time being. So I have Hail Mary plays, like a large stake in HSOA, and then more modest picks like, SSL, USG, SZE. I also have some AAPL that I write calls on and have some uncovered calls on the housing index spyder XHB to generate income.

The only really contrarian I have is HSOA but I'm trying to build up my speculative portfolio with smaller, well placed contrarian and and value bets.

I'm also focused more on learning how to evaluate a balance sheet and so I have really enjoyed the discussion that has gone on here regarding the usefulness of EV and related ratios. Thank you both, it's helpful.
