Twitter Top 10 Catching Down

Top 10 Stocks on Twitter YTD Performance

As the market corrects the Twitter Top 10 Portfolio is correcting at a faster rate. The under performance is almost across the board with only Cisco Systems (CSCO) holding up. The portfolio is down 8.3% from the first Friday of June, but still up 16.3% from the first Friday of the year. This is in contrast to the S&P 500 index being up 8.4% from the same date. One note to the portfolio is that we warned against Baidu (BIDU) and Celsion (CLSN) when we created the list. BIDU is down 9.24% which is near the bottom in performance so far this month and CLSN is down a full 25% which is a disaster. This is once again a reminder that you should never blindly buy any list of stocks. Below is a performance chart and details for the current holdings.

Twitter Top 10 Falls Sharply

Published on June 14, 2013 by Blair in Featured, Top 10 Portfolios

Just as we suspected when we saw the picks for the portfolio this month, a thinking person would have skipped Celsion Corp (CLSN). It is down 21.43% in just a week. This is a great example of one of the limitations of mechanical investing and the reason we try to warn about stocks we’d skip for our own portfolio. It is a good reminder for you to always think for yourself…and never follow any investment strategy blindly. Overall the portfolio is down 4.74% for the month, but it is still up 20.8% from the first Friday of the year. Below is a performance chart and details for the current holdings.
