I've had some inquiries about my positions so I decided to list my ten largest positions by current dollar value. I have over 100 securities in my portfolio and like to move them around quite a bit. Below are the largest discretionary exchange traded position. I do not include bonds (US or otherwise) or the shares of any former employer in my listing of positions. Some positions are hedged as part of a more complex options/futures trade. When that is the case I will include that information relating to the other securities.
My top ten positions may include both short term speculations and long term holds. I do not recommend this as a portfolio someone else should hold. Some of these positions exist in my portfolio for either diversification reasons or because potential capital gains obligations mean that although I might not buy them right now. Paying the capital gain tax does not make them worth selling.
