The common sense gods were listening!

The common sense gods must have been listening.

This weekend I wrote the following:

This is really silly. Here are seven companies that make up just over 70% of my portfolio.


		PE's
LGIH		13.97
SWKS		14.15
SKX    	        16.28
INBK		16.28
SNCR		16.69
AMBA	    	17.07
SEDG		17.72

Their average PE is 16.02. The current PE ratio for the S&P 500 is 21.32. That’s 21.32 ! What’s the growth rate of earnings for the S&P? Perhaps 10%? What is the average trailing growth rate of these seven companies? Their average is 88%.

Well the common sense gods must have been listening! Here were the gains of these seven companies yesterday:


		
LGIH		2.41%
SWKS		4.23%
SKX            10.15%
INBK		2.80%
SNCR		3.05%
AMBA	    	1.25%
SEDG		4.90%

The average of the seven was up 4.11%…in a day.
My two biggest positions (SWKS and SKX, as everyone knows) were up an average of 7.19%.

Who knows if it will continue, and there’s a long way to go, but it’s a nice start. I hope that some of you profited too.

Saul, in case you weren’t aware of it, that is you. YOU are the common sense god.
