Re: Sandbox Stock history with AIM.......................
While the majority of my investment dollars are in ETFs, I do own a few shares of ten different company stocks and use AIM to manage them. CY is one of the ten.
Cypress continues to offer reasonable fundamentals even as the price/share heads to $16.50. AIM worked the share price range with reasonable effectiveness since starting this holding in Sept of 2017.
Three buys and three sells to make small adjustments to the holding have helped the investment. Dividends aren't included here.
CY History since Sept of 2017 Item Change Price/Share +23.6% Stock Share Count + 2.4% Stock Value +21.1% Cash Reserves +36.0% Total Value +22.3%
While overall I'm slightly trailing Buy/Hold, my risk adjusted return is quite good. The current price/share is now within 1% of where I'll start to rebuild the cash reserve again. Trading around the core position has allowed me to stay with the stock, collect dividends and build the total value over time.
This is by no means a recommendation. It is shown as an example of what AIM can do when attempting to manage a company stockholding.
