Fantasy Portfolio – April 24


My position in gold paid off for me this week. After buying AEM at one price and again after it dropped a little, I am now up on that position around 10%. The big factor in that gain was the second buy order at the lower price.

Most people would panic and sell if they lost a few percentage points. I was like that once, but I have learned my lesson. The company is still in good shape, so I knew buying lower was still a good move.

I got into PEP in two levels as well like I wanted, but have yet to see a gain or exited my KO position. I may hold on to capture the dividend, and then dump it.

The PFE for JNJ swap fell off my plate, so I dropped the ball on that. I will remember that move for this coming week.
