• Personal Portfolio Holdings:
100 percent of personal holdings are now in money market funds and or cash positions. As indicated in prior posts on this site, if my personal charts, global and international markets, energy and precious metals continued to show significant weakness I would feel justified in moving my equity positions to safer holdings in my portfolio. I have done this through my investment manager and will continue to hold these positions until other mutual fund investment opportunities become available. Please peruse all areas of this web page for valuable investment information and updates as they arise.
