He’s Back….

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Went on a trip last Wednesday morning to Dayton, Ohio for the annual amateur radio “Hamvention”. Didn’t look at the market the whole time so was pleasantly surprised to find out that my portfolio did just fine without me, thank you very much. It was up about 2-3% in those three trading days. I guess I should leave more often. <g>
