Hi Champico,

Thanks for posting your thoughts and sharing your knowledge. I see you have 3 categories, Starters, Bench and Scout. Is that to indicate the level of confidence? and what percentage do you allocate between these 3 categories.

Thanks a lot,
Charlie

Hi Charlie:

Take anything you see here with a grain of salt.

STARTERS are the highest confidence companies in the portfolio. I try to keep the STARTERS collectively allocated somewhere around 65-70% of the roster. It constantly varies though especially as I add or sell Trading Blocks.

The Bench is my second level of companies - with a collective allocation between 20-25%. These are usually companies that have been STARTERS in the past - or those companies that could easily transcend to STARTER level. In some cases they could be sort of like NBA Lottery Picks

Scout Team is comprised of those companies I like but have not decided whether to keep them or not. Collectively targeted for up to 10% allocation. Think of these companies as big on potential.

All the Best,
