Nov and Dec 2006 - A Year in Review

Wish you a very happy new year !!!

Time flies fast. Its been almost 3 months since I started this blog. It has been a fantastic experience. You have made me a lot more disciplined in investing and trading activities.

So, how did I do in December?
The account now stand at $104,791.91. A 4.79% return in two months. November was a better month with 3.52% return. The return for December are not so great. But still a respectable 1.23%.

The results for December would have been a whole lot better if not for Apple Computer (AAPL) not taking a serious price hit in second half of December. I am still very positive on Apple so no plans to exit it any time soon.

The 4.79% return on investment for this portfolio compares well with key market indicators. For October and November 2006
  • DJIA 3.17%
  • S&P 500 2.93%
  • NASDAQ 2.05%
So it seems like I have managed to better than popular market indicators. Hope to repeat that in 2007.
