6 Month Evaluation

A horrid start to the market this year left our portfolio with our 2nd losing month. On January 1st the S&P 500 opened at 1467.97 and closed at 1395.42 on February 2nd for a return of -4.94% loss. The The J Stock Portfolio began the month with $127,670.00 in assets (stocks and cash) and ended the period with $119970.00 for a loss of 6.03%. While the portfolio lost for the 2nd time in the monthly comparison to S & P 500 performance , we are optimistic going into the next period as we plan to thin our the portfolio and take new positions in companies we have identified that have explosive potential. We also have built a sizable cushioned lead over the S&P 500 over the past 6 months and plan to extend that gain this month
