Hi all,

It's been a very busy travelling schedule for me - out of town this past weekend until late Sunday, leaving tonight for an out-of-state funeral, back Thursday only to leave midday Friday out of town again...

Last week: +5.17% (YTD: -1.83%)
Portfolio Leaders: TZA MSTR
Portfolio Laggards: ZENV PSNL

The market seems mostly unphased by higher rates although the small caps did suffer last week. I continue to be net short but my timeframe for that trade is nearly expired. I lament not getting into some of my buy-list names sooner, but I can only deal with what has transpired, not what could have been. The election uncertainty should only last for another week, so it remains to be seen whether the market stumbles or just grinds higher in the face of everything. Large cap tech earnings are front and center this week, but I'm not sure what to expect nor if it will affect the broader market. Ultimately, everything this week is "wait and see",

Holdings: TZA(48%) MSTR(22%) FLYW ZENV BMR PSNL

Buy-list names: IONQ PCT CSTL PSNL

Hi Saleem,

Trimmed some TZA @ 13.82
Bought CSTL @ 34.11

So begins the start of my buy list additions - PCT is next.

Hi Saleem,

Trimmed more TZA @ 13.74
Bought PCT @ 13.17

I might buy a little PSNL today, but otherwise done for now. IONQ will have to wait for a little more price consolidation (hopefully).

Hi Saleem,

Added to PSNL @ 5.19
TZA is down to 29% now
After I trim a little more and buy IONQ, I'll have low 20s percentage, but I might let it go completely ahead of Tuesday night's election results.

HI Saleem,

Trimmed more TZA @ 13.92 ahead of the jobs report
Bought IONQ @ 15.12

This rounds out the purchases of my "to buy" list. Now I have to look for more names in coming days.
