Interestingly the one alcohol co I'm most positive on isn't discussed.  I've mentioned it twice, but that only brings the same lame politically biased insults...

 

Sounds like BUD.

Buying an oil basket for a trade XEG and USO

No bought around 1:30 pm, decent gain so far but only a couple percent

 

Basically right before I posted. There are some rumblings in the mid east plus I want to pick up anything off trade moves at the G7

 

Closing this USO out, a really good quick gain but i'm not sure this is the play for oil. I had USD laying around and wanted something quick after the news release of clearing the embassies.

 

Keeping the XEG which is basically a Canadian heavy oil ETF. I think the XEG will have more torque and will really get a bump when (if) the G7 trade deals are announced. These long life oils are a gift to long term thinkers. Obviously better to buy in a deep swoon but ok to hold on for the roller coaster too if bought well.

 

SU currently has an average 10% shareholder return. I can live with that!

Any reason aside from IAC trading at a discount to the proxy?

Delayed response as I was on vacation the last couple of weeks.

 

Discount is primary. Barry Diller is another factor and they're buying back shares while MGM buybacks will start slowing down.

Added to INVE A.STO - Investor AB today, by several orders that all filled, after adjusting them a bit, after being too stingy last evening submitting them.

 

By now pretty much fully invested again, for now.

Added to Alphabet. It is now exactly 1/8th of my net worth.

Good call, it’s about an 8% position for me.

I bought a ton of books over the last few days:

The original 1949 text of The Intelligent Investor is surprisingly different from the later editions. I recommend reading it.

Outsiders is such a good book. I wish we could get sequels to it every ten years or so, profiling other great allocators as they come along.

If you have not read it, I would suggest Common Stocks and Uncommon profits by Phil Fisher, and then a few books on accounting fraud - Thorton o'glove is one author, Abe Briloff is another (more debits than credits, etc,,).  Also, read Nick Sleep's letters.

Now you're talking!  Maybe these books will get you off the sidelines into some actual long term investments!  Outsiders alone could fix what's wrong.
