Monster Portfolio 2011 Week 9 Results

MONSTER PORTFOLIO 2011

Balance: Inception 01/07/11
$1977.32 Stock
$13.65 Cash
Total $1990.97

Balance: Week 9 03/14/11
$2,097.09 Stock
$24.16 Cash
Total $2,121.25

Excluding cash inflow of $153.00 we have a balance of $1,968.25. Though the portfolio has taken a step back from week 8 results I’m still happy with the performance over the past week. With the continued pressure from oil prices and the terrible disaster in Japan I expect stocks to be volatile in the short term. On a positive note stocks are getting cheaper and that gives everyone an opportunity to buy some stock on the cheap. If I had more money to buy stocks I would look into buying some Ford (F). The stock was up 2.59% on a horrible down day. The chart looks good as I believe Ford has hit a base. With the positive action today I would be throwing my money that way! Also, I would accumulate more Apple (AAPL) down -2.30% today. Don’t be shaken out of Apple. Nothing has changed and the stock is a bargain in the 240’s. Lastly, I would put my money to work in Caterpillar (CAT). Caterpillar is busier than ever and they will play a big part in the recovery of Japan.

Since Inception: -1.14% overall

Current Holdings:
Apple (AAPL)
Cosi Inc. (COSI)
Weatherford International (WFT)

Have a great night!
