Sold most of the January Effect portfolio for a gain...

1/7/2012

 
While I did not get near the gains I could have if I held out a little longer, the portfolio did well.  However, the fact that the market was up about 6% or so during that period obviously helped greatly.  These are the gains from Dec 19th when  I mentioned the portfolio stocks to their high during the period:
CPE - 21% gain
LMLP - 56% gain
GPIC - 2% gain
MEA - 10.5% gain
PDO - 20% gain
CRWN - 17.5% gain
I sold out of all positions (unfortunately not for nearly the possible gains) but still hold some GPIC as that one has not moved.  I will most likely sell out completely in the next week or so.  Three other stocks worth mentioning that I bought as part of the portfolio but did not get around to reporting on were TGC, DYSL and BSQR.  TGC and DYSL have done outstanding, but I lost a few percent on BSQR (my only loser in this portfolio).  I will do this again next year with much more invested (along with a hedge by shorting the market in equal weight).
Disclosure:  Long GPIC (for now)
