Alon USA Partners, LP (ALDW)

[jugs]

Today notched yet another up day for ALDW holders with a sweet gain of 20 cents. It's not much in the grand scheme of things but coupled with earlier gains this week I now find I'm underwater just $8,900k. That beats the heck out of the $16K last week.

I think this is just the beginning of things for us. In fact, I nearly added a thousand more units at $8.66 today but decided to hold off for the moment. 14,000 units should be enough but I'm so confident of this pick, I'd be crazy to ignore its calling to me. So I may well add---especially if units should drop beneath the $8.50 threshold.

I really hope board regulars have joined this party and taken positions. We all know there are no guarantees in life other than for the end of it---but we've got some strongly winning investors posting regularly on the board and their intent is that of encouraging others to face a challenge promising to bring opportunity to a place within reach.

I get so much from this "home away from home." As I add things up from the resentments I've known in both directions to the love I find in others, I can see so much that I've gained. It's invaluable!
