Looks like our 4th straight magnificent summer weekend here in New England. Yeah, the winters are tough; but the summers: ooh-la-la. It is a cool pleasant morning, about 60 degrees with the birds chirping. It will be about 80 degrees with low humidity and sunny.
The week was pretty uneventful. I was down 23 basis point, all due to Tuesday which had our 1st 100 point drop in eons. The IWV was essentially flat, going from 117.68 to 117.61. Below is a listing of all my open stocks and how they fared for the week:

As you can see, WNR was the biggest loser as the govt opening the door on exporting oil (Why Did Refiner Stocks Plunge This Week?) means that 100% of our oil does NOT have to pass through US refineries any more. If this was not an MFI stock, I would sell WNR. I will not be looking to buy refining companies for quite a while. My other loser was PM, which I sold mid-week. They lowered guidance on a bunch of excuses, but at the end of the day people are not buying as many cigarettes and that is a longer term trend (Why Philip Morris (PM) Stock Continues To Decline Today). I decided to take my profit. My other sale during the week was RIOM, where I sold about 27% of my position as the stock had run from $1.65 to 2.38 in under a month.
MFI Portfolio
Despite the WNR struggle, my MFI portfolio continued to power upwards last week, albeit a little bit slower than recent weeks. They were really helps by AGX which is starting to look like one of my best stock picks of all time. I know I thought hard about buying a second stake in November, but was worried that their February earnings might be sub par and then they would accelerate. I was wrong.

My May 2014 tranche continues to struggle a bit; although NSR has battled back. Looking back at my rejections, SNDK, ATVI, NTES and PFMT are all up double digits. Only about 45 days left on the August 2013 tranche. That is a fabulous tranche, up almost 45%!
Discretionary Stocks
Lately, it seems like this portfolio moves as GTAT moves. It was all-in-all kind of a mediocre week for this group, though it has still been stellar by pretty much any yardstick:

Dividend Portfolio
It was a strong week here, except for the PM issue. I sold them at $86.45. They had gone a bit north of $90 the previous week, But still, I made 12.4% on them in 3 months, so all-in-all I am pleased. Always hard to hit the top. But TIME, TPVG and FSC all had very solid weeks. About a month ago I added to FSC at $9.20 and it is now at $9.80. That is the advantage I have of having my bucket of 30 stocks that I follow pretty closely. If one of them goes on sale like FSC did, I often can see that and marginally buy some additional shares.

Well, I think it is time to call it a wrap for now. Please stay tuned this weekend as I do have a tracking portfolio hitting one year anniversary today and I will also comment on some miscellaneous stuff.
