Happy Holidays Everyone!

May not blog for the next few days as we hunker down for some family time. I wish all my readers a safe and happy holiday season.  It will get a bit hectic for me at the new year as I will need to tee up a new 50 stocks in my MFI index, which I reset generally the last trading day of the year.  Here is where the index stands in 2013:

	Annual		Inception to Date
Year	Russell	MFI	Russell ITD	MFI ITD
2006	11.40%	15.03%	11.40%	15.03%
2007	4.09%	-6.69%	15.96%	7.34%
2008	-37.05%	-37.97%	-27.00%	-33.42%
2009	32.51%	45.18%	-3.27%	-3.34%
2010	18.38%	22.77%	14.50%	18.67%
2011	-0.56%	-10.47%	13.87%	6.25%
2012	16.38%	9.70%	32.52%	16.56%
2013	31.23%	51.66%	73.89%	76.77%

As you can see, MFI Index is up 51.66% on the year, over 20 points ahead of a solid R3K.

Not much more to say, off to Christmas eve dinner.
