As my portfolio continues to gain value at a rate greater than the markets and many of the participants here (as evidenced by the change in rank) I do not see any major changes this week.
I have taken some profits on of my high climbers (VMW) due to concern that it may top out, though it still is almost 4% of my portfolio.
I've gained significantly on another split (MTW 2:1) and all indications are that it will run up a bit before it levels off. I am watching three more upcoming splits (JCI 3:1, NOV 2:1, FMC 2:1) and they are looking strong.
I am still holding the majority of my issues in the Tech sector (38%) with large holdings in Consumer Discretionary (25%), Energy (19%) and Materials (11%) and see no reason to change this at present as all of my research and analysis indicates these will remain productive sectors.
I am seeing continued strength with VMW/BBI/FTI/OII above 20% return and OII at almost 30% though I still have some concern over VMW and reduced my position by 50%. For 6 month targets I have BBI at $10 and OII at 80$ for my high performers. There are an additional 5 issues in the 10+% range NUAN/SCUR/CGV/XMSR/RIMM worth watching, I expect NUAN to continue its steady climb, XMSR is recovering as things settle with SIRI and both will continue to climb and RIMM I expect to make a move in the next 3-6 months as it comes out with new products/services aimed at iPhone competitiion.
The entire middle third of my portfolio is performing at 5+% and as a result my portfolio as a whole is up more than 5% against the S&P for this quarter so far.
As always I am out looking for new technology companies establishing a solid track record and having sound fundamentals, in addition I am looking at possibly addiing ADBE & YHOO for stability and watching TAP & JBX with upcoming splits.
Good luck this week.
