Failure to Diversify or Over Concentrate a Portfolio Could Be Fraud Posted
2008-05-27 02:38:00 When seeking out an experienced investor to help ensure that your financials are well taken care of, it's important for an individual to look at the track record of an individual or company's failure to diversify, which is when an investor does not apply financials to a wide range of opportunities within a portfolio and if an individual loses money, they may be entitled to a lawsuit. Credit scores hold a lot of importance today. Your credit score will affect you in many ways other than securing a loan. To improve your credit score first you must understand how credit scores work.

Portfolio.com gets the inside scoop?
2008-05-26 08:17:00 From the article: “At privately owned Chrysler, Nardelli no longer has to concern himself with annual meetings or public shareholders, and he can make hard decisions quickly. ?As the first major automaker to be privately operated in more than 50 years, we have an ideal structure for the work we have to do,? he says via email while traveling in Asia. Before Cerberus bought 80.1 percent of Chrysler last summer, Chrysler had spent a disastrous decade as a division of Germany?s Daimler, which retains the other 19.9 percent. But Nardelli has moved fast?scaling back production, eliminating 10,000 jobs (on top of 13,000 layoffs before he showed up), and killing such slow-selling models as the Dodge Magnum and the Chrysler Crossfire, Pacifica, and PT Cruiser convertible. ?We took 100,000 units out of our fourth-quarter production, and we did it in a seven-minute phone call,? says Jim Press, vice chairman and president. “ Of course, Nardelli?s take-no-prisoners attitude will inva...

The Relation between Age and Portfolio Risk ? Counter Intuitive Results
2008-05-19 15:26:00 Should young investors really hold riskier portfolios?There is a common financial thumb rule when it comes to an investor?s age and the risk level of his portfolio. Most financial planners recommend a higher level of portfolio risk to younger investor and a lower level of portfolio risk to older investors.This thumb rule is rooted in what seems to be common sense financial logic. A younger investor has more time left to save thus allowing his portfolio to adjust and compensate for possible loss due to the high risk level taken. And older investor should, by the same logic, avoid portfolio risk and concentrate his investment efforts on preserving his hard earned and saved capital. Academic research is not supportiveSurprisingly enough this practical thumb rule has little in the way of academic support. I?ve been trying to find an academic justification for this professional habit and I?ve failed. Furthermore, I?ve found articles dating as early as 1970?s doubting this very logic appl...

Portfolio Wrap-up For the Week Ending 2/16/08
2008-05-17 16:33:00 Below is the chart for this week. Since it shows up small, you can just click on the image, and it will be large enough to view.The rows in white represent stocks that were sold during the week. The "Day Gain/Loss" columns represent what happened Friday.Not much of a week for me. I did not lose much, however, yesterday really blew what could have been a good week (down over a $1,000). The YTD loss is now at -85.8%.Obviously, my week was determined by ACC, since that is the only stock I have owned during this time. As I mentioned yesterday, I plan to hold it a little longer to see if it comes back like AFT did, unless it breaks below .09. I am not sure how long my patience will last though.Look for some new trades by the end of the month when I put some more funds in my account. Working with such a small amount has proved very difficult. I think the market is looking much better right now, so I think I have a good shot at duplicating my old success now that conditions are more ...

Adequate Decision Rules For Portfolio Choice Problems
2008-05-13 18:01:00 Adequate Decision Rules For Portfolio Choice Problems# Author:Thilo Goodall # Format:PDF 1.3MB# Page Count:130 pages# Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan (September 6, 2002)# Language: English# ISBN-10: 0333994329# ISBN-13: 978-0333994320The author presents the theory of portfolio choice from a new perspective, recommending decision rules that have advantages over those currently used in theory and practice. Portfolio choice theory relies on expected values. Goodall argues that this dependence has a historical basis and argues that current decision rules are inadequate for most portfolio choice situations. Drawing on econometric solutions proposed for the problem of forecasting outcomes of a chance experiment, the author defines adequacy criteria, and proposes adequate decision rules for a variety of situations.
Know your Portfolio - Three Simple Charts Can Make a World of Difference

He was a good investor and had enough experience to avoid the common mistakes novice investors often make (more on common mistakes). Time progressed and his investments grew nicely.After a long period of independently managing his portfolio he decided to consult with an investment broker to explore new options and other financial assets. A few moments after the broker reviewed his portfolio my friend was very surprised. He was amazed to find out his once solid portfolio now had over 60% invested in stocks.Needless to say he learned a very valuable lesson that day. Managing our portfolio requires more than properly understanding risk, selecting the right assets to match our goals and term of investment and avoiding common mistakes. It requires constant and routine review. Even if our portfolio is managed by a trusted investment broker it?...

Portfolio Update
2008-05-10 02:54:00 Not a very good week for me. The week started off okay, as I lost money on HOTT, but more than made it up with day trades of CRUS, SPF, & INAP. Unfortunately, my next two moves were not as good. Those would my buys of CYTR and AAC. The former cost me about $150, and the latter has cost me about $750 so far (I currently own 60,000 shares at an average of .105/share). However, AAC is subject to 2 to 3 cent swings every day, and at 2pm I was actually up about $300 on the trade. That would have made for a very different week.As it is, I lost another 6% this week, and my YTD loss is now up to -85%.One more note on CYTR. While I did lose on the trade, selling at around .823 turned out to be a very good move. The stock is now at .71. Another good move that I made, which I was chided for earlier in the week, was selling INAP. The stock fell as low as $4.25 today, and finished at $4.84. I sold at $5.11 and $5.18.One more note on AAC. While I am currently down on the trade, I thi...

Portfolio Insurance
2008-05-07 22:47:00 Don't forget to enter the draw for the free KPMG: Tax Planning For You and Your Family 2008 book by clicking here. Many people are surprised to learn that it is possible to purchase insurance on your investment portfolio. For long term, buy-and-hold investors it's probably not worth it, since with any insurance you have to pay for that protection. The costs ultimately create a drag on the portfolio's long term return (since over very long periods of time markets are expected to go up and so will your basic, simply-diversified portfolio if you can just sit on your hands and ride out the tough times). Nonetheless, there may be situations where it does makes sense... and come to think of it, if holding the insurance means you are less likely to sell off your portfolio at inopportune times then it can indeed be a great investment in and of itself. So What Is It?Portfolio Insurance is actually provided in many different forms, but the one I'm going to focus in on is the Purchasi...

Portfolio Update
2008-05-04 15:46:00 One of people that commented recently asked for a portfolio update. At this time I hold no positions, but the percentage loss/gain for the year is -79%. Not a good year so far by a long shot. However, with the market improving I hope to turn that around. It's definitely possible, we'll just have to see if I can pull it off.I will not be commenting on client percentages anymore. The reason is twofold. One, at the moment, I am only trading for one client, so there would be no transparency there. Two, it is too much work for me to update the blog with two different sets of numbers. At least more work than I feel like putting into it right now. It was worth it previously when I was trying to gain new clients, however, I am no longer trying to do that, so that incentive is gone.
