• Portfolio Management for March 13, 2015

    Yesterday, I opened a 1/2 long position in VAR and full long positions in VNQ, RKT and XLE.
    The Figures below is what I sent by email when I opened these positions.











    XLE was a last minute trade. I am not happy about it in hindsight and I could dump the position right at the open, because I noticed that there are many oil producers in the list of possible short trades for the day.





    So, basically, today will be a position management day.
    Also, next week, I will be at the sea resort, with internet connection, but not the time to actively manage the portfolio. This means that I will either have to sell some positions or will have to hedge them by taking some index shorts.

    I believe that VNQ/RKT are stable and cheap here. Also, they are slow movers. VAR/XLE are uncertain. VAR was bought too high I think, but there is a security margin and it is only 1/2 a position.

    XLE... is a regret now!!
