-I do find it interesting 75% of the participants are beating the SPY while still maintaining a mostly SWAN stock selection.  Nobody is even close to a losing year with little diversification.  Seems to me we did as well or better than most mutual fund managers or authors we read.  Of course the game would change if we were forced to pick 50 stocks.  Little chance any of us double the SPY with even ten stocks.  

-In a small port obviously sector is extremely influential.  Energy is a laggard again this year.  You picked one or you didn't and it affected results.      

Thanks for playing everyone.  I'd like to do it again for 2020 but we'll pick earlier.

My OXY pick is killing me. Would be doing really well without that pick.

That OXY keeps getting cheaper by the day. If they dont cut the dividend it may be good entry under $40. Glad I didn't pick that one  Big Grin

I think there's a very real possibility the dividend is cut if crude prices don't recover quickly. I'm continuing to hold, but definitely holding my nose as I do it.
