2008-06-06 16:25:00 On May 19, I announced that the Fine Art Photoblog was accepting portfolios to fill two new spots.

The Mukesh and Anil Ambani Portfolios
2007-11-17 17:27:00 The India Street Analysis By Sundaramurthy Vadivelu The India Street published Rakesh Jhunjhunwala?s portfolio few months ago. Mukesh Ambani was reported to be the world?s richest person by Indian media. But it was denied immediately by Reliance. While there are many figures floating around media about their net worth, The India Street attempts to look from a different angle: their family shareholding in Reliance. Mukesh is married to Nita and they have three children, Akash, Isha and Anant. Anil is married to Tina and they have two sons, Jaianmol and Jaianshul. We discussed about Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani group companies in my earlier article, ?Mukesh Ambani vs Anil Ambani : Which Brother's Companies are the better Investment?? as well as ?Hot or Not?

Setting Up Multiple Stocks Portfolios to Shield It from Your Emotions
2007-10-24 17:14:00 Yesterday, one of the stocks I own (Diamond Offshore – DO) had a really pop after it announced its special and regular dividend. This stock has been on fire for the last several months and is mainly the reason why I hung onto the stock for so long. On the contrary, if it was going down, it would be very hard for me to hang on even if I am very convinced that the stock price will go back up. I look at my portfolio daily, and seeing a red number (meaning a lower stock price) does not help me feel confident about the stock. However, some of these stocks may just be beaten down unjustifiably. For example, for the last several weeks, another stock that I own (Etrade – ETFC) has seen more down days and up. Even though I’m pretty convinced that this stock will go back up, seeing it go down a couple percentages every day will not make me feel better about owning it. What if I sell the stock because the pressure of losing too much money gets to me? If someone tells me that it wi...

Open Space: E-Portfolios
2007-10-14 21:00:00 Nearly two weeks ago at the Progressive Educators' Network Conference in San Francisco held the Whitcomb Hotel (October 4 – 6, 2007), a group of educators came together in an “Open Space” dialogue to discuss portfolios in schools. Most of the folks that came to the open space session had some knowledge of portfolio assessment, yet the groups’ familiarity with using portfolios to assess students ran the gamut from “we use portfolios a lot” to “I’ve heard a bit about portfolio as an assessment tool and I’d like to learn more.”This particular blog entry attempts to start the conversation about portfolios between those people who want to enter the dialogue in this “Open Source” community. By Open Source, we mean anyone is free to join in the conversation (in a respectful way of course). Eventually, we’ll talk about moving traditional class content into portfolios. Later, we’ll talk about e-portfolios (electronic portfolios) and give some ideas about how...

Selling Stock Portfolios
2007-09-05 21:10:00 Most people typically don't sell huge amounts of stock in a single year unless they need a big loss to offset other large gains.However, sometimes one has no choice. A common situation is when someone is given or buys stock options for a very low price and hangs onto them hoping the price will really rise.When this happens, there are times when the company issuing the stock has the opportunity to repurchase these shares or options at a set price. Or, the company is sold and the new company will buy the old shares outright.Some municipal bonds can also be called if the issuing municipality can refinance the bonds at a lower interest rate. This often makes a sale the best choice, rather than receiving a lower interest rate and reduced income.So, assuming you sell these assets for more than you originally paid for them, you are faced with a capital gain and capital gains tax.If the amount is significant, it often behooves you to put a tax savings strategy in place before the sale happ...
Blogs and E-Portfolios

Guns 'n' Portfolios
2007-07-06 08:40:00 There are several pieces of Talmud that talk about people turning their lives around, earning olam haba in an instant, or other inspiring teshuva messages. This story caught my eye because it is kind of the same message, but instead of 'an instant' it was 'a exploded pancreas' and instead of 'olam haba' is is 'olam hazeh'. But still.I don't know if any of you still remember Guns 'n' Roses (I feel so old writing those words), and if you have never heard of them - I'm not recommending that you start now. It is hard for me to listen to their offensive language, even if their music is still fantastic.Anyway, their bass player has transformed himself from a tattooed long haired drug addict, to a tattooed, long haired investment advisor. There is something very charming about the thought of Mr and Mrs Duff sitting and playing monopoly with the two little Duffettes.This article is from the New Zealand news site 'stuff'With his ragged mane and heavily tattooed wiry frame, form...

Uranium Portfolios
2007-03-08 09:30:00 The nuclear industry has been attracting a lot of attention from new eyes. In the past the nuclear industry has been scrutinised by environmentalists as well as other types of groups, but now these eyes are more focused on the greener issues and global warming. Ironically the nuclear industry is now appearing to play a larger and larger role in reducing the pressures of global warming.This as increased the pressure on the so called ?dirty energy? or fossil fuel energy such as oil or gas. Aside from the global warming and carbon emissions there are two other strains on the use of fossil fuels. First is the countries that are supplying the oil and gas are not always the most stable of countries. As gas is generally cleaner to use than oil, its not like anyone would like to rely on Russia as a gas supplier. Second is an issue that is at the back of every ones mind, that there is only a limited supply of fossil fuels left. What is of even more importance is that the cost to produce ener...

SmartMoney: All-ETF Portfolios
2007-03-01 18:34:01 SmartMoney.com recently has an article which provides some model portfolios for investors who consider taking the all-ETF approach in building their portfolios. The article, titled “Ready for an All-ETF Portfolio? Here Are Some Models,” starts by making the arguments of under what circumstances an investor is better off to stay with the traditional index mutual funds. Such circumstances include: In a 401(k) plan: Commissions involved in ETF trading makes it unfeasible for dollar-cost averaging; For buy-and-hold investors: The flexibilities ETF offers are less attractive for buy-and-hold type of investment. But for investors who have a lump sum to invest, ETFs are very appealing for their lower fees and better tax efficiency than their mutual fund counterparts. For these investors, the article offers several model portfolios. The Conservative Approach In this case, you only need two ETFs, one tracks S&P 500 index and the other covers foreign markets, to give you the...
Model Portfolios Built with ETFs (II) ? The Boglehead?s Guide To Investing
2007-02-21 18:30:02 This is the second part of the Model Portfolio Built with ETFs series, which convert Jonathan’s Model Portfolios into all-ETF portfolios. In this part (the first part can be found here), I looked at the four example portfolios in The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing [Amazon.com affiliate link] and examined ways to reconstruct these portfolios using nothing but exchange traded funds. There are four asset allocation models in the Boglehead book, based on an investor’s time horizon to retirement. A general rule of thumb is that when investors have time on their side, they can afford to take a greater risk with a bigger portion of their investments in equities, as it has been proved (using historical data of course) that over long-term, equities offered investors better returns than bonds did. As the time span gets shorter, however, the investments shift to a more conservative allocation with a higher percentage in fixed income assets. This basically is the theory behin... |
