Bounce Back

The week ended on a positive note, led by my Jekyll & Hyde Stock TGB. Look at its range during the past 2 weeks:

4-May-073.343.503.323.502,677,7003.50

Then today it was up 11% to $3.37. So you could have sold it last week for $3.47, bought it yesterday for $2.77 and then sold it today for $3.37. The late action today was most curious.

FDG was my other strong Canadian performer today, up over 6%. A 3rd Canadian company (didn't realize I had so many!), PDS was down about 4% as their monthly distribution of 13 cents was clearly below expectation.

Here is my weekly chart. Again for new readers it shows how my portfolio (in Magenta) has performed vs breakeven inception to date and against the benchmark Russell 3000.


Finally here are my current holdings and their performance.
