Kdavy Sahib,

I suspect I may be a bit overdiversified with positions in 56 different companies. My largest positions are AMAT, GTK, KIM (short), CREE, TYC, and SXT respectively.

Main Harvard Universiti mez Urdu partha tha, mugger bhul gaya. I wanted to take Hindi, but they only taught Sanskrit and Urdu! I think that a grant from the Agha Kahn foundation may have been behind the somewhat odd linguistic choice that I faced. I haven't been back to India in 25 years, but I am looking forward to a family trip once my babies (one is expected in October) are a bit older.

I agree that for active trading, diversification is probably inversely correlated with success, which is one of the reasons AD did so well casting his laser gaze on AMAT.

Namaste,
Sam
