Thoughts


A better week, and a pretty busy one by my standards.
Lots of volatility in the stocks I watch. A couple of very poor exits. I should have cleared over 1000 BPS, but I guess a profit is better than a loss. I missed a few nice opportunities on the likes of BARC and on VOD on Friday when it gapped up and immediately dropped over 500 BPS.
Still, well above my 2.5% weekly target.

All the talk of a Greek rescue / default produced some volatility on the stock and bond markets.
And then on Friday we had US payrolls, which added to the market volatility.

Hoping for more opportunities next week.

Changes on my watch list stocks over the last week, everything in the red:




Stay disciplined.

Stay focussed.

Stay humble.
