Personal Portfolio Holdings:

100%  Cash.     A few week’s ago I  stated that Global and North American markets hardly flinched following recent negative news re: Goldman Sach’s / Greece etc.  and I would expect to become re-invested in mutual funds associated with the best performing sectors of the global market place in the very near future.  Well since that time, the market place certainly didn’t give me any assurance that present tumultuous conditions are going away any time soon.  Since selling my equity positions the Dow has dropped nearly 600 points and the TSE is down 200 or so.   Conclusion: I don’t see any need to get back into equity funds at this time and be subject to unnecessary risks in the short term.  Volatility is an ugly – ugly  word……An alternate investment strategy may come into play shortly that will reflect current  global market conditions.
