EB Special Portfolio Update - We're Exiting All Positions
I don't like to see today's failure after an all-time high on the S&P 500, especially after what I discussed last week regarding sentiment. Our portfolios have regained most, if not all, of their losses from Monday's huge gap down on many technology names, and we have a huge advantage over the S&P 500 right now for the current quarter (November 19 through February 19). I'm of the mindset "why take a chance" on selling over the next few weeks?
Therefore, we are exiting all portfolio stocks as of this time at 2:45pm ET.
I'm not suggesting we're going to see a massive selloff from here and I remain very bullish from a long-term perspective. But it's all about managing risk and I do think the short-term presents risks that are building. We will treat our portfolios as though they are completely in cash until our next "Portfolio DRAFT" in a few weeks. We'll decide at that time whether to reinvest or remain in cash.
Happy trading!
