The Month Of November Was No Turkey

By Paul Price of Market Shadows

Market Shadows’ Virtual Value Portfolio completed the holiday-shortened trading week with a gain of $848 or plus 0.63%. During the four weeks ended today, November 29, 2013, the portfolio rose by $4,465 or + 3.38% giving us good reason to be thankful.

 

Our original $100,000 closed out the month at a new record. It is now worth $136,398. 

 

Our cash reserve sits at $3,697 or 2.7% of the total account value. We made no changes to our equity mix this week. We did add one new name to our Virtual Put Writing Portfolio. Our option selling has been going every bit as well as our equity account.

We continue to do well versus the DJIA and the S&P 500 which were both relatively neutral on the week.
