CoreSite Realty Corporation (COR)

Hi Grommit -

A pretty good report. They delivered on their FFO growth (over 16%) and that was/is the thesis for my Buy. The company is building value as they grow their data center base. I plan to eventually peel off my higher shares purchased 6/2011 at current prices. My winning Buy was following you in at $13.00/share when the market was crashing at the end of September.

If the stock can string together a few strong quarters like reported today, this one could be close to a double in 18 months. If they also raise their dividend ( just over 3% yield) from time to time it will help support higher prices too.

Hi Grommit -

Bunge Limited Bunge Limited (NYSE: BG ) - added to current position
Spectra Energy Partners, LP (SEP) - sold high priced shares for small gain

Picked up 1.5x the number of shares sold 31 days ago to replenish my inventory. According the the Graham valuation number, BG is an excellent value. The Graham No. shows fair value at $104.03/share representing 77% undervalue from the current market price of $58.70/share.

FWIW, I am still underwater on my shares bought 7/8/11 @ $71.34 but am encouraged by the Graham valuation. Hope other investors see the same value.

Sold my high priced SEP shares for a small gain and moved the proceeds into BG.
