My top 10-ish positions in no particular order: UVIC, GLW, MSFT, MGDDY, MHR-D, DRAGF. Out: PWRD - reduced position
New positions: VASTN.NL, SHOS, PFHO Positions increased: BRK, MKL, STX, AAPL Positions reduced: PWRD, JNJ Positions eliminated: DELL, GST-A, BAC, ARY, RIO Flip-flop:
Prefs: Sold GST-A, since GST's results and balance sheet do not look good to me. Sold ARY at over par price with yield-to-possible-call dropping.
With stocks running up, I should be selling more, but most of my positions are good companies intended to be held for long time, so I am trying to hold. :) Not always successfully.
Sold DELL before the current "going private" runup. It was IMHO the weakest of my tech holdings, although possibly also the cheapest on P/S metric. Sold BAC, since I am not sure I can value it well and the prospects seemed unclear. Was planning to add to other bank shares, but most ran up. Sold RIO due to the extraordinary losses. Shares are running up though due to the increased ore prices. Reduced oversized PWRD position when it ran up to $12.XX. Not really a valuation call, but rather a position size call. Sold some JNJ - here's the "forever hold" company that Buffett dumped and I am selling on valuation.
There's a number of other "good companies" that seem to be overvalued. I may sell them if the prices rise even more.
I bought more BRK and MKL for reasons outlined in the last writeup. Both have been rising though and I don't plan to add more at current prices. Added to STX and AAPL. Both seem to be rather attractive tech plays. Both have been discussed here at length.
Bought some SHOS. Stock has been running up. Bought a tracking position of microcap PFHO that was discussed here. Bought a small position in VASTN.NL mentioned by Clownbuck here. |
