How Are We Doing?

Wondering where I've been?

I decided to spend my time living my life and let the stocks do what they do.

We have owned these 11 stocks for an average of 3 months and 17 days. Here are the symbols again:

BLDR

CECO

CLZR

IUSA

JTX

MNI

PACR

PLAY

TBL

USPH

VCI

Our numbers are based on the market close from November 16, 2006.

VCI, our big loser, is down 14.81% and we have two more losers, TBL and USPH, which are down 6.56 and 10.00 respectively. All eight remaining stocks are up, but it should be noted for nervous nellies that in the beginning we had eight losers and and three winners. In fact, before we bought any other stocks, Timberland[TBL] was down around 25%, so it has made a recovery. People who bought it just a couple weeks after we did are quite pleased right now.

Here are the big winners:

BLDR Up 10.97%.

CLZR Up 34.06%.

CECO Up 38.36%.

Pretty cool!

Now, for the biggest winner...

InfoUSA[IUSA] UP 49.29%!

How does this average out? Our group of 11 stocks is up 12.36% in less than 4 months. That'll work.
