Stock Markets Love A Celebrity

I should have known WTW would continue to pop post the O news.  I have seen this play 100 times.  The stock isn't worth the $18, but sheer momentum carries it up.

Yesterday I commented that the open positions in MFI tracking were up a composite 77%.  That is now 126%!

11/28/2014  $        29.00  $        17.75 -39%
12/31/2014  $        24.84  $        17.75 -29%
1/30/2015  $        16.56  $        17.75 7%
4/24/2015  $           8.25  $        17.75 115%
6/26/2015  $           5.10  $        17.75 248%
7/30/2015  $           4.14  $        17.75 329%
8/28/2015  $           5.98  $        17.75 197%
9/25/2015  $           6.42  $        17.75 176%
Average 126%



Here are the open Dogs Portfolios - now up an average of 10%.

Date Gain/Loss
10/31/2014 -11.7%
11/28/2014 -4.3%
12/31/2014 7.7%
1/30/2015 1.8%
2/27/2015 -18.0%
3/27/2015 -12.7%
4/24/2015 11.3%
5/29/2015 -18.3%
6/26/2015 32.5%
7/30/2015 58.3%
8/28/2015 37.9%
9/25/2015 35.5%

Here are how my various tracking tranches are doing:

Category Value
Total      179,450
Total Russell 3K      191,818
New      174,783
Dogs      278,940
Dividend      369,682

The Dogs are now at $278,940.  Certainly a decent showing, though requires patience. It was $244,000 at the end of September, so quite a spurt in October.

Stay tuned.
