Good morning Dan,
The last two weeks have added some Cholula Sauce to everyone's portfolios, whether leveraged or not! Yesterday was one for the record books with all but one of my positions posting positive gains on the day. The only one down was only off 0.50% (RSPF).

The massive number of double digit gains is some sort of record for me. While the portfolio is far short of a new record high, it did recover a lot of ground. Many of these positions have had AIM accumulation activity in the last week, but not all. Mr. Lichello and I are prepared for whatever happens next, and that's what counts.

I ran a nice 1.5x leveraged business sector portfolio for a client for many years using AIM. That worked well for the client. It was just a bit more spicy than unleveraged sectors and did trip trades that the unleveraged AIM accounts missed.

Best wishes,
OAG Tom
