Sold half of my BRK in my retirement account and moved it to FFH, Fairfax India, and a little BTI and TAYD.  Still have all my BRK shares in my taxable account and they will probably have to pry them from my cold dead hands one day (far in the future, hopefully).

SU - cut my position by ~75% for a small breakeven accounting for dividends. I have lost confidence in the overall thesis from last year into early this year. I can't shake the feeling I'm just trying to catch the top part of a very dangerous geopolitical curve.

EPD, PM, GNL preferreds. 
 

Still bullish particularly on PM, but I’m continuing to raise more liquidity for a couple real estate projects, and these were sitting at under a 10% short term gain.

Sold the few shares of VTS that I have in my IRA (still holding all my shares in my taxable account for at least a full year).  Up 50% in 8 months.  Nice work if you can get it 🙂   It had a nice little pop today , people probably noticed that a director bought more shares http://openinsider.com/search?q=vts and it's not a big company, so it doesn't take much to move the price.  The dividend is great and it may still have more upside, but my IRA is tax free, so why not take some chips off the table. A lot of their production is hedged so they weren't hurt too much when oil prices dropped, and probably won't knock the cover off the ball if oil prices go up.

Closed my ATVI positions. Exited at $91.92 (19.8% return in 15 months, or about 15.8% annualized).

I think there are better options than the residual 3% upon transaction close, and some risks still remain (albeit minor) with the UK's green-light.

Never gets old

 

This is value investing in a nutshell, in China or elsewhere. The feeling when the pain subsides is unsurpassed.

Yea that's why I don't like value investing, sometimes there is too much pain involved. It's not as bad as trying to make money shorting but still.  

 

I prefer to make money copying other people's good ideas. That's the good stuff, and you can even pretend like it was your idea all along!
