I had stated before I wanted to get the number of holdings down in the Young Folk Portfolio and even though I just added to TSCO a week or so ago, I did sell the position today.

The TSCO sale generated $7595 in cash and it was invested into the following:

SPY - $4,000
SMH - $1,595
APD - $1,000
COST - $1,000

I do plan on building SPY where it represents at least 25% of the portfolio value and may increase it further than that as time goes on.

Here are the current values of each position and the percentage of the portfolio value:

SPY - $25,014 ... 8.0%
SMH - $22,351 ... 7.1%
COST - $10,486 ... 3.4%
APD - $8,035 ... 2.6%

I do plan on having SMH represent more than 10% of the portfolio value.

The portfolio is now down to 26 holdings. I will sell two more in January. I'm waiting because the two sales will be in the taxable account and they will trigger a taxable event. I already have too many capital gains for this year which can not be balanced with losses because the account has no losses.
