End of 2010

Going into the end of the year, I'm holding:

21.68% of my portfolio in shares of PHK at a cost basis of $11.94 a share; 17.89% FEED at $3.99; 28.98% MGM at $10.16; 13.60% BAC at $14.80; and 17.85% in cash.

As of 12/30, I'm down 10.26% on BAC and down 32.55% on FEED. I'm up 5.11% on PHK, although I bought it for the 12% dividend, and I'm up 45.89% on MGM.

Happy New Year!

PHK

Bought 167 shares of PHK at $11.94. It's up 5%+ in a few days, but I'm holding it for the dividends. At $11.94 a share, it's paying 12%+ a share in dividends, annually. And I love that it pays out monthly. PHK is an ETF, the first one I've purchased in my discretionary account, but unless this thing goes to $14 a share in the short-term, I'm a long-term holder.
