Hi Saleem and Stocktrader,

This morning I have been busy with hurricane shutters. Hope Mathew will not create havoc for south Florida. Last minute purchasing is also done. Let us hope for the best.

Stocktrader, What a wise move with LABD. Well done. Keep up the good work.

Good luck

Joseph

Hi Joseph,

I wish the best for you during the storm. It sadly even looks like it might loop back around and hit again, although the track could certainly shift by then. You will be in my thoughts for these upcoming days.

Hi Saleem,

Rebought WLH @ 17.81

I still like the valuation, geography, and current execution of this company very much. I think it's ok to buy the strongest of a group, even if that group is under pressure. If the pressure ever lifts, WLH could lead the charge.

Hi guys,

If it wasn't for this nagging thought that ZYNE is going to do a secondary, I'd have filled back up on that one also. It remains extremely undervalued.

Portfolio: TRIL, URI SPLK QRVO, LABD, WLH DKS SWN, ZYNE, CNAT, cash 12.9%

With the LABD position, my "long exposure" is probably <75%, although I'm in every stock I want to be in and have great protection. One of my plans was to actually sell the LABD by close as I think it quickly already served its purpose--I'm not sure I need more protection now as I feel my stocks can stand on their own. I also feel like the jobs report will not be "scary strong" tomorrow which could give relief to bonds and stocks.
