QAV Light Weekly Update #210

Hap­py Mon­day, Light Brigade!

And a big wel­come to all of our newest mem­bers.

Not much to report from my week­end. Lots of kung fu injuries. Chris­sy twist­ed her ankle dur­ing spar­ring, and I got a bad­ly bruised thumb, dis­lo­cat­ed jaw and my bro­ken nose got a nasty hit and I heard a crack. Seems okay, though. Just the usu­al. The pain reminds me that I’m still alive.

We watched this great Wim Wen­ders film “Per­fect Days” on SBS. 

Any­way, let’s get into the port­fo­lio updates! We have stuff to sell today, but noth­ing much to buy yet.

All the best,
Cameron

PORTFOLIO UPDATE

In the last 30 days, the Light port­fo­lio was ‑1.79% vs the index which was +0.41%.

Our most impres­sive return for the last 30 days is SXE (South­ern Cross Elec­tri­cal Engi­neer­ing) which is +13%. But we’ve held it in two parcels since 2023.

SXE up 287%

Bought 30/8/2023 at $0.780 (+278%)

Bought 2/11/2023 at $0.820 (+260%)

Yet again, anoth­er reminder why we don’t sell stocks because they hit some arbi­trary price. If they are good busi­ness­es, we hold them for as long as we can.

 

A QUADRUPLE MARKET YEAR

For the last 12 months, the Light port­fo­lio is +37% vs the index +8.7%.

 

 

Since incep­tion (Feb 2022), the Light port­fo­lio is +20% vs the index +11%, dou­ble mar­ket, right on tar­get (hey that rhymes!).

What if every­one dumped US Trea­suries at once? Chat­G­PT thinks it would hurt the sell­ers more than the US in the long run. #USTrea­suries #Eco­nom­ics #Chat­G­PT #Finance #Invest­ing

FOR NEW MEMBERS

If you’re new to QAV Light, here’s a quick reminder on how it works. 

  1. We send you an email every Mon­day advis­ing which stocks we are adding to our Light port­fo­lio.
  2. You can copy our trades, but please remem­ber to review our Trad­ing Guide­lines to under­stand which cap you should be look­ing at and oth­er impor­tant con­sid­er­a­tions. And con­sult a finan­cial plan­ner before mak­ing any deci­sions.
  3. We don’t rec­om­mend that you add stocks which are already in our port­fo­lio. Their posi­tion on our buy list might have changed since we rec­om­mend­ed them. Just start with the stocks rec­om­mend­ed after you become a mem­ber.
  4. If one of the stocks we add breach­es one of our sell con­di­tions, we will sell it from our port­fo­lio and you’ll get an email advis­ing of the trade. Again, you can copy our trades, but seek finan­cial advice before mak­ing any deci­sions. And please check your Rule #1 price (see Trad­ing Guide­lines).
  5. If you come across any QAV ter­mi­nol­o­gy that you don’t under­stand (eg Rule 1, 3PTL, Pos­si­bles, etc), please review our ter­mi­nol­o­gy guide or just email us for clar­i­fi­ca­tion.

That’s it for today! 

If we decide to buy or sell some­thing, we’ll let you know.
