Can You Believe it is December??

Yes, the sand keeps flowing. The clock is literally ticking in Washington on the Fiscal Cliff negotiations.  I have decided it really doesn't matter; hopefully I am wrong.

Beautiful "mood" snow here in Connecticut.  We will be making our annual pilgrimage for Christmas tree today.  I always think the "A Christmas Story" when the father is picking out the tree.  Hopefully, we will not get one with prickly needles.

My portfolios continue to trudge along.  The dividend portfolio has been most outstanding, up about 21% year to date.  The two MFI tranches have been under-performing a bit... but it is early. I have dodged a number of potholes this year (I sold HP at $27, I sold Kohls at $52 before they got taken to the woodshed, I sold GTAT at a price 40% higher than today), and while I have not been perfect (thinking about the re-buy of TROX, though original sale was good), I have been decent and the family will have a Merry Christmas.

Here is the current dividend portfolio.
