>>> Good job is an understatement. Outstanding. <<< ..........

That depends!

Were the positions large enough to have a huge impact on the entire portfolio, or were they "small" positions and only provided marginal overall results?

5% of something is often better than 30% of nothing when it comes to the overall performance of the portfolio.

He did a great job of picking winners! I tip my cap for that!

He often says I took a small position. I don't know how he defines small. I don't know the position sizing. I don't know the overall performance. Hence, the "good job" rating.

A 30% overall performance would be an outstanding job.
