…an independent advisory firm building wealth with active portfolio management

Bought the FEAR 250131

Markets were turbulent this week.  The DeepSeek AI despair only lasted about a day, but the bounce was wiped out by tariff trauma.  Listening to the news coverage, you’d think the USA Technology sector had gone bankrupt and global trade had ended.  The reality was much more muted.  For the week, the S&P 500 was down 1%, while the tariff targeted countries of Canada, Mexico, and China were -1.03%, -2.16, and positive 1.82% (based on US$ traded ETFs).

Like everything, we’ll just have to wait and see how things play out.

On Friday I made the following changes to my portfolio:

Fully closed the long term positions in VZ and trimmed the following overweight positions: CVX, DVN, RSP, XLE & XOM.

With the raised capital I bought additional positions in the following stocks already in the portfolio:

AMD

APH

CIEN

DELL

EIX

ETN

FCX

FLEX

GLW

HPE

HXL

JCI

KMI

MSFT

NVDA

ORCL

ROK

SCCO

SPXC

STX

TT

VRT

ZBRA

And finally, I started new positions in these stocks:

ATO

AVGO

CSCO

GEV

GNRC

LNG

NOW

I’m staying long and optimistic on the convergent themes of Technology, Industrialization & Electrification.
