The Large Cap Watch List (Track at Marketocracy) got a boost from Sallie Mae’s (SLM) big rise on Friday. That helped it earn 1.6% for the week to easily beat the S&P 500’s 0.63%. Since inception it is leading by nearly 3%.
Finally, we continue to track our legacy (June 2006) all-cap watch list, which has had no changes made other than through corporate actions (buyouts, bankruptcies, etc.) It only gained 0.1% this week. More embarrassing, our generally bearish stance cost us this week as our personal portfolio actually lost 0.1%.
