Stock Talk - Investment Decisions - December 2018

December brought more pain and angst in the markets. It forced me to make some tough decisions and take some losses, but it didn’t dissuade me from staying true to my investment ideology and my search for buying quality investments at a discounted price. In one case I had to do a 180 and retract my decision. 

Decisions Taken:

New Position: Bought shares in Vanguard FTSE Canada All Cap ETF (Ticker: VCN)

New Position: Bought shares in Goldman Sachs (Ticker: GS) and JP Morgan (Ticker: JPM)

New Position: Bought shares in Exon Mobil (Ticker: XOM)

New Position: Bought shares in Tiffany (Ticker: TIF)

Sold Shares in Johnson and Johnson (Ticker: JNJ) for 7.5 percent gain (Net Forex)

Bought more shares in Big Lots (Ticker: BIG)….and then sold it all

Sold shares in MGM Resorts for 21.1 percent loss (net forex)
