Same here, don't want to sell BRK though. :-\

Successful in studying or the blog? Always interested in reading blogs from people here.

I was already invested in oil/gas going into 2016 (which had a substantial contribution to my losses in 2015). I did pick up BTE somewhere below 4$ in september. All of my commodity holdings, with exception of BXE, are currently standing at a substantial profit since purchased. Fortunately for me I was able to add 50% to my portfolio in cash from bonusses (small personal portfolio) at the beginning of 2016, so the 40% return this year is about 2.5x the -20% loss I sustained last year.

Picasso, Is there a thread about FELP? If so, I would like to read it and understand your reasonings about the company. If not, where could I find more information? Thank you! Gio http://www.cornerofberkshireandfairfax.ca/forum/investment-ideas/foresight-energy-felp/ 60 pages, I've been going through it again for educational purposes, makes me question why I considered it risk to go above 5% position. I guess in hindsight anything that works out will look less risky. Still have much to learn, yet so little time :)

40% here, a third of that came from FELP (thanks Picasso!), if only I had the balls to go deeper... Usually 5-10% in cash. Happy with the results as I was in Sri Lanka for Februari so missed out on the bottom. Couple of small mistakes this year but nothing really big, which is nice as 2015 kicked my ass (-20%).
