I was just looking at your old stocks... Costco, Wells Fargo, BAM, your truck company and more. All are doing very well with the exception of FXEN which I gather is a small holding. You still have all those?
Doing well in this stock market has been a no brainer for those who held thru the 2009 collapse (too bad quite a few sold). Heck, even a troubled company like CAT isn't being punished much. Plus smaller caps and NASDAQ have way outperformed blue chips in 2013.
Glorious years for old school (buy quality and hold) investing.
I watch people here turning over their portfolios 10 times a year every year and I wonder why they never learn.
