Thanks Kastel. Has been a very profitable call, so far.

No matter how much I might like an individual stock, there's more individual company risk in very small caps. To manage that risk more effectively, prefer a basket of 4 to 8 companies vs putting a very large amount of capital in just one or two.

Been lightening up on a few of the early leaders in OS and NG as they've run into resistance. Last week took a nice profit in TESOF. Yesterday, came out of a large and profitable PDE holding. Today sold 1/3 of CRK for a good gain.

Some of the proceeds went to increase cash reserves. But rolled most of it into several additional small gassers that are earlier their uptrends.

IMHO, that was a very important low in the small cap NG stocks about 3 weeks ago. But, it's a volatile sector. And there should be some good dips for establishing or adding to positions as we work our way higher this year.

Cheers,
