The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption. — Robert Reich (@rbreich.bsky.social) 2025-01-08T23:00:31.029Z

One could make the argument that 150 stocks is too many wrt Diversification BUT I will not. In the context of Total Portfolio I'm good with 6-10. The Trade Portfolio, where Biotech exists as a subset, is 3% The objective is to push The Trade Portfolio to north of 10% AND Grow the rest. Given yesterday's EQX PR and The Bond Vigilantes push to 5% I may push EQX to 3X Pushing an existing Position that is finally beginning to perform IS Most often better than opening a new Position. Good ideas are hard to find. Cheers, 60
