Promising start – smackdown finish

The portfolio was weighted 16% or so net-short going into today’s session, and an 8-point down open had things up a smidge at the opening. But the market came back over the day to close only fractionally lower, and the wild-card long gold-stocks position got hammered. So the +.2% start ended in a 1% loss. C’est la vie.

There was one trade, and that was to buy the 4th and final tranche of HGU.
