Mostly I just haven't been logging on to the board but I have made a few changes in my game plan. The gains I'd made over the past several years had reached a point where the size of new purchases had reached levels that I was having emotional problems with so I made a few changes in how I manage my accounts. Instead of managing only one portfolio I now have two portfolios. One is similar to BTT's Leader's Portfolio without a few of the companies they have but with five others I had bought at the right time. The second is comprised of purchases of newer listed ideas near the LP. It may be true that more gains can be made by concentrating funds in fewer stocks but there came a point where emotionally I wasn't comfortable with the size of the new purchases. I'm much more comfortable with the size of the current purchases and both of my portfolios are significantly outperforming the market this year (each up over 30%) which I feel is quite good in this year's choppy, flat market.
