Core Fore Investing - June Results
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010Another putrid month in the markets. Here’s a brief rundown of the highlights and lowlights:
Portfolio 1 lost 7.9% during the month, 220 basis points worse than the Wilshire 5000. With half a year done, it’s outperformed the index by 14.5%. That’s more than acceptable. The best performing stock YTD in the portfolio is Famous Dave’s, […]

Lululemon’s (Nasdaq:LULU) sin of omission is neglecting to give investors a separate breakdown of sales in both its Canadian and American stores. It […]

Monday, June 28th, 2010I happened to be looking through the June issue of Entrepreneur Magazine when I read that between 2005 and 2010, 214 home-related magazines were launched in America. This is a staggering figure when you consider the number of magazines disappearing from the publishing landscape in recent years. It got me thinking about advertising spending and those who do […]

The Most Beautiful Stock In The World
Thursday, June 24th, 2010Last October I contemplated a long/short investment in Sally Beauty Holdings (NYSE:SBH) and Ulta Salon Cosmetics (Nasdaq: ULTA). The question I had was which stock was which. Ultimately, I determined that Sally was the long and Ulta wasn’t a short, butMedifast (NYSE: MED) might be. It’s eight months later, so I thought I’d readdress the idea to see if anything has changed and what, if any, […]
