What's in your Stock Portfolio?

Question

What stocks do you currently own, how many shares, etc?

(If you don't want to say how much you have then just list the stocks)

Answer 1

At the moment:

Stocks (all long):

ANIK, ASPV, BRK.B, BPT, FRX, HOG, LCAV, SBR, UTHR

Covered Calls:

OVTI

Options (all calls, and only a few hundred bucks worth, I use options sparingly):

ASPV, LH, SCSS, CTAS

And rather more cash than I'd like. I put a lot of money in oil companies when the black stuff was hovering around $50 a barrel and decided to take the money and run now that we've spiked back up. Looking for a good idea or two, but nothing sings to me at the moment...

If you're looking for ideas I'd recommend checking out ASPV or UTHR. Though I am of course not responsible for anything that happens if you decide to touch any of these stocks.

Answer 2

I had rather neither. I will be happy to give you a general idea though. About 50% bonds and 50% stocks. I am in the position of requiring a predictable income flow. Stocks are 35% foreign and 65% domestic. About 65% large cap, 23% mid cap, and about 12% small cap. Something in that ball park.

Answer 3

I am a trader. Note that is a particular descriptor. Not an investor, not a speculator, not (certainly) a gambler. But, as a trader, I have nothing in my portfolio that is more than a month old. I work it as a business. Last month's super-star is this month's dog meat. Investors do it differently, but that is the situation of a trader.
