If At First You Don't Succeed...

Try, Try Again

Out here on a another beautiful morning in Montreux, looking out over Lac Leman with my coffee. I actually made it this time using the hotel coffee maker.  The Swiss put Keurig to shame, that would not sell here.

After my disappointment with the SFM IPO this week (I still can not believe it is possible Fidelity was only allocated 8,000 shares), I am planning to try again.  I have downloaded several prospectuses and will let you know what I buy (or more correctly try to buy).  If I am unsuccessful again, I may consider moving some funds away from Fidelity to Merrill Lynch. They probably have better connections.

On Friday I did underperform a little bit.  VIAB had very, very good earnings () and popped over 6%.  To continue my theme of growth over value, my "growth stocks", VIAB, STRZA and NUS all had very good quarters, growing revenues over 20%. And that is being rewarded in their stock prices.

I did end up with a transaction yesterday.  I had put in a "puke" price on SBS a month or so ago at $9.85.  Well, it got there.  So it is my newest addition to my dividend portfolio.

Dividend Portfolio

I did collect some nice dividends this week from companies I had sold, CIM and FCX.  Always nice to get that check, will help pay for this balcony!

It looks like the only stock I may sell early will be NSU as everything else is in the black.  Well, I guess DLB is in the red as well exclusive of their special dividend last year.

Discretionary Portfolio

This portfolio also continues to perform exceedingly well.
