Quick Stock Update

I recently sold Blockbuster (BLOKA.PK), Fannie Mae (FNMA.OB), and Motors Liquidation (MTLQQ.PK), all for having .XX in their ticker symbol (someday, I will learn to sell immediately/avoid stocks when they transition to Over-the-counter Bulletin board or PinK sheets). I also sold Ambac (ABK) for wondering out loud whether its stock was worthless.

All four stocks were sold at a significant percentage loss, but relatively insignificant monetary loss (but not so insignificant that I wouldn't bother to lock in those losses ASAP). Such is just part of the fun of owning a bucket of stocks that could only be called "The Distressed".

I will use the proceeds from these sales towards a newer, healthier, better stock in September.

Stocks Of The Month: FFIV, YRCW

For this month, I've added a new high-flying non-dividend paying stock, and bought a little more of a distressed (and dangerous) transport stock.

F5 Networks (FFIV)

Positives:
Solid quarterly earnings (46%) and profit (78%) growth.
No debt.
Positive cash flows.
Possibly the next Cisco Systems, or a takeover candidate.

Negatives:
Somewhat expensive P/E ratio of 55.
Low insider ownership (0.5%).

YRC Worldwide (YRCW)

Positives:
Business headed towards profitability, after narrowing loss in latest quarter.

Negatives:
Probably one more lousy quarter away from bankruptcy.

Here's my current portfolio. As always, I believe in all of these stocks - until I sell them.
