A GOOD START

I’m up 2% right out of the gates. For the first half of 2013, I made a little more than 29%, making it my best half in years. For the second half I intend to at least double my gains, putting me to +60%–which would be my highest return since 2010.

To accomplish this I am going to have to be consistent, fearless and I cannot have large draw-downs.  Losses must be taken quickly, eliminating the prospect that any one stock can deny me of accomplishing greatness. On the other hand, I must exhibit patience on names that I have faith in. To balance this delicate task, I must pay attention to position sizing and assume that my first buy will be wrong, leaving room to average in.

By far, my largest position is IMMR, with GS a close second. I am fully invested, with only scraps left to allocate. I might swap out of one name for another today, or I may do nothing.

Sometimes the best move is to sit back and enjoy the view.

    Seems to me UNXL is a longer term hold with accumulation on dips. Seeking Alpha had a decent story about the company today. I bought some Friday.

    I’d like a book of Fly Quotes. There’s some really good stuff over the years.

    Fly, if July is generally good for REITS, which ones would you recommend?

    Oh, the pain of not holding this one from the 1.80 levels.
