GTC Sample Portfolio: Cleaning out to (Nearly) Cash

Note: As stated in the first article for the GTC Sample Portfolio, we’re keeping our quantitative processes private; but will share the moves we make on an actual portfolio, and then show the results via a Grid, VAMI and performance statistics. And please note our risk statement. You can find the previous post for the GTC Sample Portfolio here.

We posted adjustments to our trades to both Tier 1 and Tier 2 Members on the 27th, … but we like to keep the moves we make transparent so we want to post them here.

We exited the TBIL position, by selling 415 to close at $50.00. After all the trades we exited the other day? That only leaves us with the PLTR and USO puts that we sold. We are letting those go to expiry on the 28th for maximum profit.

Thus, on the short-term trading book (Up 5.79% thusfar year to date), we can watch Core PCE’s effects on the market from the perch nearly 100% cash; and then plan trades for July accordingly.

Naturally, we still have the core positions (unhedged) of …

6 shares of Medtronic (MDT) at $82.979
3 shares of International Business Machines (IBM) at $170.06
30 shares of Invesco’s Emerging Markets Sovereign Debt ETF (PCY) at $18.72
13 shares of Invesco’s S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF (SPHD) at $42.31
9 shares of SPDR’s Utilities Sector Fund ETF (XLU) at $62.22
6 shares of SPDR’s High Yield Bond ETF (JNK) at $91.17
13 shares of Kroger (KR) at $45.92
1 share of Coscto (COST) at $506.90
3 shares of Union Pacific (UNP) at $206.73
13 shares of Wells Fargo (WFC) at $41.82
4 shares of Diageo PLC (DEO) at $152.06
15 shares of WisdomTree’s U.S. Efficient Core Fund at $35.67
3 shares of Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) at $198.48


A small gain for June, as we are in the black again this month; and we’ll keep moving it forward.

Stay safe and trade well …
