What stocks are currently in your portfolio?

[AussiePaul72]

G'day fellow ASF members! Good to see this thread is still alive and well. It is interesting to see the make-up of other portfolios and peoples comments about stocks and investment strategies.

Since i started this thread my portfolio has changed a little and below is an update at this moment in time:
SDL - Completely out now ... i bought in at 23c and got right out at 80c ... timing was very good looking back!
RAU - got in early and then topped up again on its spectacular run ... it had a correction today but i'm in for the med-long term and i still believe we are in for an exciting month ahead with lots of drilling results due!
AZS - seems to have settled at 18-20c for the time being... i'm sitting patiently as there seems to be lots of potential ... announced today that they will list on TSX
GBG - a little disappointing recently from a SP point of view .... still very good fundamentals ... and i'll wait patiently to be rewarded
FNT - Huge copper deposit at Kodu in PNG ... currently in trading halt pending news ... possibly CMS? .... here's hoping for a very positive announcement to kick the SP along .... many other projects in exploration stage
ADY - lots of potential with a very exciting world class lithium project being developed, also iron ore
EXM - got in at 3.3c and with volume and interest growing quickly with upcoming drill results in a few weeks ... this is one that IMHO could have extremely good potential in the near future
MHL - my most recent buy at SP of 5.2c ...have been watching since low 3's but didn't have funds at the time to purchase ... however, lots of potential with this one also .... early days ... close to a significant announcement in terms of JV partner for oil and gas exploration ... also has uranium projects

Keep the thread going .... thanks all for for sharing!

Well things have changed a bit so time for an update on my holding:
Have sold from above,
RAU - did well and still watching closely
AZS - came out ahead after selling at 17.5c. One to watch closely though as drilling results will start filtering in soon.
GBG - very disappointing and sold out at a loss
FNT - also disappointing and sold out at a minor loss
Still holding,
ADY - still believe in this one even though i am in the red
MHL - also in the red but placed this in the bottom drawer for now
EXM - sold some on results but have increased holding again recently to lower buy in price as sellers seem to be building. Looking forward to more drill results being announced
New buys since posting above (in general greater focus on resource companies approaching production in recent buying),
KAL - speccie that is very undervalued IMO with lots happening this quarter
SXP - my only speccie which i have gone with on a hunch, may take a little while for this one to build up momentum but lots of potential in coal, coal seam gas and oil & gas
EQN - looking to top up on this one if SP remains in low $5 range
MUN - gold producer looking at first production next month
AGO - iron ore producer on schedule to start production in Oct and seemed good value buy IMO

Anyone else care to update their portfolio after changes recently????? I'd be interested to see how others might have changed their strategy considering market sentiment!
Good luck to all

AAE, ABJ, ADI, AGM, ARW, AOE, AUT, BLG, EDE, ESI, FNT, GRK, LAF, MOS, MDS, MHL, NWR, PRE, TAS, VPE.

Majority of the funds are in AGM, AOE & AUT ( about 60%) Balance are speccies. This is probably the first time for years I do not hold a dividend paying share. I'll have to think about that,

AOE has improved 300% for me so that is the dividend there. I expect AGM to do the same in the near future. AUT needs a "gusher" which could come yet.
AAE, ABJ & ARW are recent purchases at low prices all in the green, waiting to benefit from a Rudd win ??
MHL, FNT & PRE are interesting specs at the moment. Trying to pick a top but not wanting to exit too soon but they are showing good results to date.
.

Largest holding still AGM and holding.
Sold AOE at $2.70 bought back at $1.70, sold again at $1.90 bought back again $1.70 Think they are well underpriced.
Sold most AUT to move across to ADI to improve the exposure to the Sugarloaf well.
Bought and sold ABJ a few times with a little profit but held AAE as a dog.
BLG wasn't going anywhere so it was sold at break even. The same for MOS.
NWR has been slow but I continue to hold and increased my holding to bring down my average price. PRE was sold at the top and the funds put towards NWR so the book loss on NWR is at least offset with the PRE profit.
VPE was declared a dog to be put down and was sold. A loss there.
FNT has fallenin price. Bought more for day trades and is still in the green because of the trading.
I still hold the rest. Additions have been ACE, TNC, NSL.

I'm currently not holding any stocks... I sold up my CFD position on BMN before new years... I'm very thankful for this... If I held I would've been in the negative... I keep a close eye on BMN, EXT, CTS, MTN, BHP, RIO, DYE, CAV, and IMI

 

[kengaikl]

OK but where is the challenge? Where is the spice?.

i guess there is not one stock out there worth buying apart from these two. The banks are cheap but i'll stay away from them for sometime. BTW i only invest in the top 200 stocks. i find some of the small cap stocks to be quite illiquid.

First post on this forum...

Holding:

AED - very disappointing now, holding for longer term
BHP - just acquired during the correction
CHM - very disappointing.
ODN - still long way to go I think

Last time sold:

EGO - short term only
WOR - sold it not at the right time.

Plan to buy:

WOR - look pretty good, wait for the "right" moment
WOW - seems has solid fundamental

Guys, need your opinion on my "Plan to buy" stock..any comments? any suggestions of other stocks? better one(s)? I'm just a beginner. Appreciate your comments here...

So as to avoid the trial by fire santos...nobody can give you investment advice about which stocks to buy etc...(hence you will see DYOR and IMO around a lot) unless they are a financial planner and know your specific details and circumstances...try to rephrase your question in another manner

 

[Buffettology]

Only holding 2 stocks, DEX and JST.

Expect a good profit report from JST for the first half of the financial year and a good upward trend in their price. It looks nearly the exact situation as 6 months ago!

Cant beleive I didnt get on BHP just the other day when it got down to the early 30s!

But too volatile, when/if the market takes another hit, I will get on BHP, BKL, EQN if the price becomes right. Love WOW and JBH also but they are just too high.

Will keep an eye out for SDG also.

Thanks for the comment...yeah, still try to see around for stocks...but my plan is for mid - long term, had a bad experience with short term... My lesson, unless you're a trader, it's very damn hard to play short term (correct me if im wrong)...

 

[bhiggins]

Currently holding 3 stocks only as believe in concentrated portfolios.

CNM - renewable energy inparticular wave energy and clean coal.

TGS - big copper and cobalt resource in DRCongo with huge upside potential as TSX listing planned for March.

RLC - broad mining exploration, Australian based.

Total holding approx $4.5m with biggest holdings in CNM and TGS having accumulated at low prices over last 4 years and 1 year respectively. Starting to build further exposure now to RLC based predominantly on its Bullamine project south of Perth - market cap of only 3m but plenty of upside obviously if they can project into production or at least get it ready for production.

Good luck and happy hunting

Aplying the theory that you cant get rich by following the masses, i hold a portfolio of 15 odd stocks of which only one is resources based. Looking at the relative number of posts in this forum, resource stock suggestions outweigh other stocks by a ratio of around 5:1.

Im either going to get slaughted or make decent money in the long term

Hope your choosing your stocks well!

15 odd stocks doesnt sound too good! You have to follow the stocks the masses like, just buy them at the opposite times!

Agriculture

IPL - Fertilizer
ABB - Grain
GNC - Grain
MAK - Fertilizer Speccie

Yes if you are a trader applying the 'castles in the sky' theory, but not if you are buying as a buy to hold strategy

At some point (actually I guess it was gradual) my portfolio skewed away from established stocks to speculative, and unloved speculative at that! so in the current climate my portfolio is not doing so well, though two of my stocks INL and VPE make up most of the negative between them.

not in the chart making up the 11% other is BRW, NLS, CMOOA, and VPEO

Oh and IAG doesn't show either as it is issuer sponsored... It would show as about 10% as well (though obviously that would throw out everything else ).. It doesn't owe me anything so I'm not too worried about the recent punishment it has received, I've had more in dividends than I paid for the stock so can't complain

as you might have gathered I take a contrarian approach, though some of my choices (or at least timing of them) has not been ideal

Tony.
