Date updated:07-27-2007
This is my actual portfolio that I have $30k invested in.
New Info: I added to my NYX position by temporarily selling out of my IGT and permanently selling out HXM (God what a shity stock, I hate you Sam Zell and Motley Fool). Anyway, I still don't want to buy the brokers until they report and assuage our concerns (I said that from July-Aug they had little upside).

Originial Posts:
I still want to be overweight financials for the 2nd half of 2007 because there is too much M&A and international growth for these Big Banks not to overachieve. With that said though, I believe that from July-August financial stocks will have limited upside. I have shnitzeled out of financials and into some beaten down growth stocks for the upcoming round of earnings (I should have deleted these stocks out temporarily, but didn't and my tracking numbers are suffering). The NEW POSITIONS are ones that I think will surprise in the next 6 months of 07.
Nibbling a little at some tech even though I know they bottom in LATE JULY. Hoping to trade a surprise in SIRF. I got in at the bottom....sweet.
I also like FCX and LVS as China plays for the 2nd half of 2007.
HXM needs to get off its ass and deliver in the 2nd quarter or I'm dumping it. Inv. Bus. Daily gave HXM its blessing recently so I expect the earnings to reflect why.
I really want to add some stem cell stocks but that trend is still at least 1 1/2 years away until we get a new President, and some more science to calm nerves. However, make no mistake I believe in this trend.

-
GS
Goldman Sachs Grp - $171.78
- -0.93%
- $171.96
Earnings and multiple are too low. Still has upgrade upside as 5 analysts have holds on the stock. On July 5th I trimmed down my share of GS in order to make some other purchases. I still love the stock, but in the short term I think its uspide is limited because people think it's like BSC. Even J.C. says it might fall to an 8 multiple before it rallies, which is just amazing. July 20th: THIS STOCK IS CHEAP B/C IT HAS HEDGED SUBPRIME WITH INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO FOR YEARS.

-
LEH
Leh - $0.00
- N/A
- $N/A
When I wrote this, LEH was almost as cheap as GS. Not as good as GS but still good enough for me to double down with two brokers. July 5th: trimmed this financial down just like GS eventhough that C.C. was incredible (60% of revenues are overseas). Looking back I know that I got too piggish and should have sold out at $81-82. July 20th: SAME REASONING FOR GS

-
FCX
Freeport Mcmoran - $79.56
- +0.08%
- $78.58
Well positioned in both Gold and Copper markets and I don't see those plummeting anytime soon. July 5th: Shnitzeled a little after 15 points. I can use that word even if I am not Jewish. Right?

-
LVS
Las Vegas Sands C - $15.35
- -0.78%
- $15.10
Could be dead money from June-August but I don't care because this thing is going to explode and I'd rather show up too early to a party than too late. July 15 update: We have seen the bottom at $72. Hazzaaaaa!!!

-
NYX
Nyse Euronext - $26.87
- +2.67%
- $25.92
Will only add average down if it breaks 70. JULY 20: will add at 78 now I know that the bottom is @ $72ish

-
MICC
Millicom Internat - $66.63
- -0.31%
- $66.52
NEW POSITION: I like AMX but MICC is trying to tap into the African Telecom Market (In addition to its South American market exposure) which will double in 3 years according to FORBES. JULY 25TH: GOT ABUSED/DESTROYED/EMBARASSED/HUMILIATED/F*'CKED UP by that earnings BUT I ONLY HAD 1/2 OF MY POSITION IN THE STOCK (THANK GOD). I AM STILL A BELIEVER IN INTERNATIONAL WIRELESS GROWTH AND THIS STOCK IS INTERNATIONAL. I MIGHT EVEN ADD AMX.

-
IGT
Intl Game Tech - $20.18
- +8.73%
- $19.25
NEW POSITION because.... I view this as a textbook case of: "lots to gain with little to lose." To quantify that statement I believe 2 down 10 up in the next 3 months because it seems to have bottomed at around 38. July 19th Earnings should kick off the move up. BTW J.C. has a position in this stock

-
SIRF
Sirf - $0.00
- N/A
- $N/A
NEW POSITION because.... It has contracts with RIMM, GARMIN, GM, and MOT, just to name a few. Yet is only 6 points higher from where it IPO'D OVER THREE YEARS AGO. Management has maintained earnings forecasts, and last time I checked not many cell phones had a GPS chips in them, which is what this company is all about. Even the most conservative analyst gives SIRF a $26 price target. I am buying 1/2 my position in it to possible catch an earnings surprise on July 19th, same day as IGT.
