Mad Money Machine

Trades in the portfolio

On the Back to School show on May 16th, Jim said sell Southern Copper. So at 10:30 on the next day, the 17th, I did that. Got $93.79 for it. The stock had peaked at $109.93. But we still got a very nice 14.6% return on the thing. PCU was in our “Company You Know” slot. So I’m still hunting for a company that Jim knows. Wish I had thought to buy SHLD before the earnings! Why didn’t you say something Jim?

Also, today I bought for the portfolio Chico’s FAS like I said we would do and the 10:30 price was $30.13.

    Well, upon further review, Jim DID say get into SHLD.

    So the question is: Why didn’t I listen???
