Responding to the Nsomniyak Challenge ...
I'm overall bearish on the economy, so my picks reflect that mostly ...
QID - ultra short Nasdaq 100
SRS - ultra short Real Estate Index
HL - Hecla silver
UVICF - Unilens contact lens, current 10% dividend should limit downside, and hoping for good earnings in late Oct. Edit - They increased their dividend last month, as well as an increased "special" dividend, so I am counting on that as an indicator that business is going well.
OSIIF - OSI Geospatial mapping. This is wild card, had losses in 1st two quarters, but continues to reiterate they will be profitable for year, so I am expecting last two Q's to be good. Lots of business with allied Navies, so hoping that will limit any economic downside.
PTSC - Patriot Scientific. Most are aware of it. I feel it is near a bottom, and with the right news, is capable of big break-out.
Best to All,
