Too often in the investment industry the experts share their
favorite picks with investors. And then at the bottom of the
article it says "I currently have no positions in any of the
stocks mentioned".
That drives me crazy!!!
Why is the idea good enough for someone else, but not for
you???
So let's pull back the curtain and share with everybody what are
truly the largest positions in our actual portfolios. I will start
that off by sharing a few names:
Apple (AAPL): Best run company on the planet. Estimates keep
going up, but the PE keeps going down. That ain't right. This stock
is worth $550 plus by any reasonable valuation measure.
Shorting the long bond with TBF: US Treasury rates are at
historical lows. It wont stay this low forever. So I am betting on
a bottoming. This is not a matter of "if" it is only a matter of
"when". So only get into this one if you have oodles of
patience.
Caterpillar (CAT): The developing world is
"developing". And for that they need to do massive
infrastructure investments. Few companies are better poised to
benefit from this than CAT.
That's a good start...how about you? Share your largest
positions and why?

proud of it).
