The Pastrami Portfolio goes all cash with a
couple of grand of losses on paper in just
this past month. Mostly due to being down
almost right away a dime on ciph and cris.

Eyeballing things--say, ~7% loss on $40k, I
will say I have $37k to spend. Maybe do some
shopping during the summer doldrums. Paper trading
in this market is going badly for me--but I think
maybe I will do some buying late this summer and into
tax loss season in the fall--that ought to get me
some good prices on some of those microcap biotechs.

I am 100% cash in the PofQ contest--up about 5%.
Real world, 99% cash, small position in Curis, which
is down 10%. Overall in the real world I am up about
25% this year, and up ~50% over the past six or nine
months (for brokerage accounts only).

Summer break now, ha, half a dozen things on the honey do list.
