A lot has changed.<br />I only hold one of the five stocks that I picked at the beginning of the year. My focus back at the beginning of the year was growth stocks. They have not done well lately and I do not believe they will do well in the months ahead. With rising interest rates and trade wars and debt crisis ahead of us, I think now is a good time to pay down debt, keep a healthy amount in cash and wait for a chance to buy the best companies at much lower prices. <br />I do not mind telling you that I am actually SHORT companies like SNAP that burn hundreds of millions of dollars with no profit in sight and SHOP which goes for about 230 times next year earnings and almost 20 times sales. At this point in the cycle, I think these stocks will get massacred. And where's the floor when you lose $200 million per quarter or your stock is going for over 200 times next year earnings? Let's be careful. President Trump thought it was a good idea to do a MASSIVE STIMULUS at the top of the cycle. Interest rates cannot go up fast enough. All that tax cut money going into buybacks will distort earnings while America engages China in an all out trade war and the global economic growth shrinks. Things may get messy. This is a good time to be a bit cautious.

I like where these are going long term. It is a lot less stressful thinking long term as opposed to trying to figure out moves in the stock market today, tomorrow, next week, etc. Whenever I react I always think some bank is fucking me. I once sold 50% of my shares in CSU in a panic to watch it shortly rebound and vowed never to do it again.Twotimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868436511774128622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031526429482744032.post-9712702197892079132018-10-08T06:23:28.142-07:002018-10-08T06:23:28.142-07:00Minus 2.5 percent so far this year, but I'm co...Minus 2.5 percent so far this year, but I'm confident in the long run I'll be fine...Gavinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771103734767703683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031526429482744032.post-6095583033715152202018-10-08T05:58:01.562-07:002018-10-08T05:58:01.562-07:00I am up 7% YTD.
