What makes me able to handle the larger portfolio is that I don't move in and out very much. This possible because I concentrate on small producers and companies bringing deposits/fields into production rather than drill plays, which require more trading to make money on. To show what a nut I am, I also have lists of at least 60 other candidates for which I check in on the filings periodically. I keep on telling myself to cut down, but I haven't managed it yet. Whenever I sell out of something, there always seems to be another good one to fill its place. LC

Bernard Baruch used to say 10 issuers was max to invest in. I used to follow 600 by using a spreadsheet and ordering them by change in price from day previous. That brought 25 constantly to the fore and helped picking. If you use a spreadsheet and use about 8 formulae for price and volume on a 52 week historical running update, you can pick about 25 a month that will move due to promotion prior to play which always follows. If you watch reporters prior to listing you can get even closer to the fore. This requires sedar hunting, which is painstaking.
