Weekly wrap Archive
Summary:
Was happy to break even in auguration week despite the averages being lower. Bought a tad of NRF-B and some ONAV and closed my LEN short, while selling NRF. I think we are still going down some more, but don’t get a strong sense.

Summary:
Gained another 4.6% last week as financial such as NRF and CMO gained and my shorts performed well too. I sold into strength dumping a bunch of NRF, and some NRF-B SGTI and SNEN. I finally got out of the CFC-B for a small profit. The poster’s convergence theory (to BAC-X as this is now [...]
Summary:
Gained 4.1% last week. I lightened SNEN, CMO, and NRF-B. I hope to swing trade the latter two. I was in and out of GKK-A, which hit my stink bid when announcing the dividend would no longer be paid. I sold as my purpose was the dividend. I started a position in ONAV, an (oil) [...]
Summary:
Gained 1.4% in last full week of the year. SNEN reported earnings above expectations, but most was from a one-time gain. Besides that they were inline, but there was no reaffirmation of guidance like in October. IR said they’ve decided not to issue guidance anymore which I find worrisome. I’ll be cutting back and trying [...]
Summary:
Managed a 1.8% gain last week. It would have been more but I have been raising cash and my short position in anticipation of another dip. It didn’t come this week, and I don’t know if it will come this week, but I think it will come. When it does, I will reload more NRF-B, [...]
Summary:
Gained 2.6% last week. I spent most of the week selling, dumping OCNF, CNEH and the last of my AHR-C, trimming NRF, NRF-B, CMO, and RICK, and shorting more CRM, FAF, and TOL. The only buy I made was covering the rest of my HOG short.
I guess you could say I think we’re heading down [...]
Summary:
The gains don’t last as I fell 3.4%. Did a bunch of swing trading mainly of NRF and CMO and sold some OCNF. I added to my FAF short and sold short some TOL. Those blew up in my face on Friday. I also sold some Jun 5 NRF puts.
The market seems to have a [...]
Summary:
Finally a little redemption after 2 hard weeks as I gained back 22.3%.
For the week I sold some ANH and SGTI as well as shorted IP and CRM. I closed my FAF short and part of my HOG short. I added a little CNEH.

Summary:
Lost another 13%. Mayhem continues. For the week I added to NRF, NRF-B and SNEN, funding some of that with sales of AHR and AHR-C. AHR is not nearly as well capitalized as NRF and could go under. I also bought some RICK and OCNF. Despite a tanking Baltic Dry Index, OCNF has much of [...]
