ccrt has made my portfolio whole for the year up 20% today. this may not be for the faint of heart I purchased shares in a canadian real estate developer today. genesis development. They own lots of land in calgary and british columbia. their navs are purportedly above $C10 and I paid $C4.18 . There is a large inventory of unsold homes in calgary but they are at the center of the oil sands, and this company is not heavily leveraged. most their property is vacant land as opposed to unsold homes. Also the canadian market is vastly different from the us market in the size of the subprime market and downpayment required. The company sells for about 10x last year earnings i believe. shares are thinly traded. I also added to loser bsic a small oil and gas exploration company. The ceo owns a large chunk of the company and is in it for the long haul. So I will have patience with him.
