I just woke up to the fact that I’m not happy with a lot of my picks.

I did a review and found that since Feb a lot of my picks were underperforming the S&P. I was blaming the terrible earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Now I’m looking at charts and trouble started in Feb. not March. I was heavy into the Auto sector. First to get hit was Ford (F) and Magna International (MGA), then TRW Automotive (TRW) and Tenneco (TEN).

Today’s down turn real got me pruning my portfolio down both in real life and on P&P. Oh yeah, the new improved speed on P&P really helps. I had been holding off P&P pruning because of the speed and uncertainty. I look forward to getting some new ideas from P&P folks now that P&P is user friendly again.

The most recent picks by «horsedentist» are:
A buy rating on BFR, and
a buy rating on GGC, and
a buy rating on TMV.
