RIMM took quite a hit on Friday, dropping the annualized return on my entire portfolio by several points all by itself.
All part of the process. The Wireless industry, and RIMM in particular, are still nestled in the buy zone on the model, so it will likely be held for a while yet.
Even more encouraging is the fact that the Railroad industry is moving into the buy zone, and CSX and UNP both look attractive. That’s bullish. I don’t know why or how there would be bullish indications for the market, but I don’t do market timing and won’t lose sleep puzzling over it. The goal isn’t to go “up” or “down” but to find stocks that go up more and down less.
The market can do whatever it wants, whether it makes any sense or not.
