Boasting (OT)

Ran my quarter end numbers and with BRK on a tear my performance vs. S&P-500 really starting to pull ahead.


       3M       1Y      3Y      5Y
tecmo  -0.7%   +21.4%   +24.4%  +20.9%
S&P    -4.6%   +15.6%   +18.9%  +16.0%

The last 5 years have been very good.

PS: My returns since 2014 (when I started tracking more closely, +15.9%)

YTD ( Cumulative ) - 8.38%

Here is what I am holding right now. Cash has been in the 5% to 20% range over the past 5 years.


US Index (SPY, RSP, QQQE)	21%
Berkshire Hathaway     	        20%
Microsoft	                13%
Global Index ETFs               10%
Cash	                         8%
Company Stock	                 6%
CA Index (XIU, XDV)	         6%
Apple	                         5%
Google	                         4%
Brookfield	                 2%
Amazon	                         1%
Costco	                         1%
Disney	                         1%
Dollar General	                 1%
AliBaba	                         1%

Most of my investments have been pretty stable I would estimate that 70% of the investments haven’t changed at all in the past 5 years. One other point, I am in the accumulation stage of my career (maybe 10-15 more years until retirement - maybe less?) but the returns account for new money added. With the portfolio growth new money is actually pretty trivial now (but I still plug away - at least for the time being).

Still in my early 30s, so new savings still move the needle a bit.

From 2012-2021, I was essentially 50/50 BRK.B/Index Funds the entire time. The smaller positions are much more recent.

Costco 1%

I recently sold out of Costco at near its ATH. It’s hard to justify holding at its current price. I’m close to feeling the same about Apple and Microsoft too. I wish I had google. I’d hold that one forever at the right price.
