My Investment Diary我的投資日記04-30-10

It’s month end and it’s time to review the performance of the portfolio. I was not very active in April as I was tied up with other stuff. On the other hand, the market is unpredictable nowadays, people react differently on good news and bad news. Goldman Sachs, Greece problems are just adding more uncertainties to the market. My own feeling is that the market is slowly reaching the near term top, therefore, it’s time to cut down some stocks and keep more cash.

I am below target this month so I need to be more aggressive next month to make up the difference.

Gold re-bounced this week and I took the opportunity to unload my Kinross stock. Sun Life ex-dividend date is coming and I am adding more to the portfolio. Next week, I hope to get some Rogers at lower price.

Sold K at $18.98 and $19.30
Bought SLF at $30.50
 

My long term portfolio is doing ok and I will reveal it next week. Stay tuned.
