1 Day Down, 250 To Go

1 Day Down, 250 To Go

Well, it was a weird day for my portfolio.  After just a horrific December which I wrote about here (MFI Diary: MFI Diary Monthly Update 12/2018), my portfolio jumped off the mat today and shot up 2.4%, while the Russell 3000 was basically flat.  The few days I've had an outperformance like that, it has been because a single stock or two shot up for some specific reason.

But today it was pretty much across the board.  Weird.  I guess it was because I had a bunch of names that had been beaten down for tax purposes and also some names correlated to oil?  But even my MFI portfolios were up 1.5%.

Some Of The Winners

Here are my 9 biggest winners:

 NMM  13.5%
 DLNG-PB  8.8%
 TGP  6.3%
 CPLP  5.7%
 SGH  5.4%
 TOO-PE  5.3%
 TNK  5.2%
 DISCA  4.4%
 CHK  4.3%


These preferred stocks (DLNG-PB and TOO-PE) are supposed to be steady eddies, not stocks that move 5 to 8% in a day on no real news.
