Pinch Me

Wow, my MFI Portfolio has been a little pocket rocket these past two days. It shot up another 1.5% today. That officially puts me in the green. Gosh, just that statement makes me want to cry.

ANF had a huge day, going up over $3. They have superb same store sales released today (Abercrombie & Fitch Reports September Sales Increase of 29%). Same store up 10% over 2005 AND total sales were up 29% over 2005. Wow. They increased guidance a dime and now expect to earn $4.59 to $4.64 this year. ANF is now up 23% for me.

PTSC(E) went up 7.7% to $0.995. It seems like just yesterday I had commenetd that I was down 50% on PTSC. Now I am just down 24%. A week from tomorrow they will release their long-awaited financials... gulp.

I actually added my 31st MFI stock today. It was kind of by accident and will only be #31 on a temporary basis. I had placed a buy order on ASEI at $45.85 quite a while ago. It actually dipped that low this morning then ended the day at $46.86. Quick dollar profit. I plan to sell PCU to get back to 30 stocks in two weeks. I am finding that buying MFI stocks when they dip in price works better for me than 5 to 7 all at the same time.

Not much else to say, I just hope my move into the black isn't short-lived. Check it out!
