With market up apparently on positive jobs report, I made these changes. Fwiw Closed CUTR (in 8/10 @ $7.55; sold $8.67) I don't see when the earnings are going to be positive. Still lot of cash of balance sheet (big positive) Closed ALTE (in 11/10 @ $20.28; sold $22.59) Insurer below stated bv. Many are like this though. Decided I don't know ALTE well enough to be comfortable with it; I've others I like better that I hold. Closed APOG (in 9/10 @ $9.19; sold $13.33) Closed stub BEAV (in 11/8 @$8.18; sold $36.23) The sometimes benefit of holding on to a stub position. Trimmed AFG (in 12/9 @ $24.22; sold $35.59) Insider sales lead me to trim. Trimmed more FLS again as it continues up. (in 7/9 @ $72.29; sold $131.77) Trimmed EPD (in 9/10 @ $38.02; sold $43.25) I still like it. I believe I'll have room for it in my ira instead of keeping it in taxable account. I'll see when I get my k-1 regarding UBTI Trimmed BBD (in 11/7 $16.90-$18.17; sold $21.16). Still holding a full position. Expected I would have had better stock performance from Brazilian bank stocks held '07 into '11. Trimmed a few LEA (in 12/10 @ $2.58 & 2/11 @ $1.95; out $4.02). I was too slow today to decide to sell as stock popped, then dropped from highs. Is what happens sometimes when you're slow, don't know what you have and aren't confident about what you have. Leads one to sell -- hard to resist taking profit. I held the sold LEI shares in a Roth. (Also have LEI in taxable) Moving just a few of these shares to cash, I'll reconsider over the weekend if I want to buy these shares or more back next couple of market days. Trimmed high-cost shares HA (in 12/10 @8.20-$8.38; sold $5.96) I'll take the tax loss. My outlook is still favorable for HA route between Korea & USA. Travel reductions between Japan and USA has likely adversely affected HA. Trimmed high cost shares WLFC (in 5/10 @ $12.52; out $12.78) This stock still looks good to me on a p/stated bv. I don't understand how the aircraft lessors are doing okay, but aircraft engine lessor WLFC is not. Bought more STO ($28.33), SAH ($14.20), BG ($73.53), ATPG ($17.79) STO announced big oil discovery (although will take maybe 5+ years before they pull up any oil). BG looks inexpensive to me (p/e) if ag commodity prices stay high (which I expect). ATPG will soon start producing more oil in GOM, given their permit approval. SAH will benefit from shortage/increasing expense of new cars - esp. if/as Japan issues lead to increased demand for used cars. (Reiterating my opinion: these auto retailers make more money selling used cars, than they do from new cars. I believe both in-total and on a per/car basis)
