Boring Portfolio Stock: US$83,888.40 Cash: US$364.85 Total: US$84,253.25 Still flashing a buy signal, but ballast is insufficient. Nothing to buy. In order for this portfolio to recover, it must be able to move high enough to recover its ballast. QQQ Portfolio Stock: US$82,064.00 Cash: US$24,733.60 Total: US$106,797.60 My readers would have noticed that I have been steadily liquidating my stocks, and going cash-heavy. This portfolio is now at 1840 shares, compared to 920 shares at the beginning, and 2380 at its height. The accumulated ballast will come in useful if the stock decides to suddenly nose-dive.

It is a lull period right now, with no signals for the QQQ Portfolio, and a strong Buy signal (but no ballast left) for the Boring Portfolio. I have had readers asking me about the Boring Portfolio. I have more or less given up on this, and in real life would have liquidated it. It may be interesting to note, though, that had I not used the ballast system for this portfolio, it would have been torn to shreds a long time ago. Boring Portfolio Components Citigroup, Inc 700 shares Coca Cola Company 610 shares McDonalds Corp 590 shares Proctor and Gamble Co 140 shares Exposure to banking was bad. Really bad. But it was remarkable how much the entire portfolio held out against the storm, precisely because it had ballast.
