The first quarter is over. By pretty much any metric it was successful, as I was up 11.58%. My dividend portfolio (9.36%) and MFI (8.78%) were trailing a bit, but I did very well with my discretionary picks. GNW was up 33% and my recent buy of GTAT is up over 20%.

Average Days Held | 37 |
Again it is a bit tricky just looking at the raw numbers to say how successful my buys have been in Q1, but to average 4.8% per trade and hold for just 37 days on average is pretty solid.
Here is a look at my various portfolios.
