I sold about 30% of a position today for a 69% gain in 6 month.

We stopped publishing our free weekly CSI Blog after 10 years of publishing at the end of 2015. We are following our 6 remaining open positions until the end.

In late 2015 we started offering a paid subscription service which is similar to the Blog, but we tell you exactly what stocks we bought and why—and sold every day, with a weekly summary of activity, open positions, how many shares we own and their valuations.

Here is the list of private subscription stocks I have bought and sold since December 2015.

We averaged a 45.5% gain on our 18 sold stocks (16 winners and 2 small loser) in our private portfolio since January 1, 2016.

In July:

BLIN had to do another 1 for 5 reverse stock split. This is the second one in just over 2 years. An AMAZING destruction of value by this management group.

PRSS announced Q2 earnings. Their “turnaround” continues. Our new valuation is $6.49 and they have $1.80 per share in cash. We are still hopeful on this one, but it is taking too long, which is always concerning.
