First Of The Year Portfolio Drawdown

It’s nothing too severe – less than 1% – but I’m getting wacked to start off 2014 nonetheless.

The selloff in my account is led by HCLP, as mediocre fund managers caught padding their positions, trying to save their unspectacular careers, let go the Potemkin equity stakes.

Silver caught a nice bounce into the first of the year, but we have been here before, have we not? I’m mentally prepared for silver to go to $0.00…being shelled out for free at every street corner. Why not? It has no utility, after all…excluding all its utility.

My positions are AEC, MAA, NRP, HCLP, BAS, CCJ, RMCF, UEC (small), BALT, physical silver, and some TSLA puts (a third of which are about to expire worthless on the 18th of this month).
