Whats in your trading portfolio?

This is our offical trading thread. Very simple thread concept. List the shares that currently comprise your portfolio. Discuss your performance and share your stories. When was the first time you traded live through the market wether it is forex,stock,futures,or what ever and how was your first experince. Tell us what you learned from your first experince with these markets.

As for me. My grandmother died and left me a portfolio of 12 different stocks. Which i liquidated and found myself using more and more of my time playing around with stock market, and forex market.
Every since december, trading literally took over my life.

The 3 im currently trading our:
MFC
TD
NXY

I wish I could post answers here... but b/c I work for a securities firm that's a Limited Market Dealer I can't write anything that would be considered specific investment advice outside of talking about the products we provide.

In case any of youu were wondering why I chirp about investing without specifics in other threads.

Why must OSC make things so difficult sometimes?

POT - got in recently @ 156... will hold for at least 2 years
STP - got in recently @ $35US... might be holding this one for a while
SU - held for years, will ride it out a couple more
COS.UN - same as SU

planning to get into financials & health care to diversify, will hold off on the financials until more is clear. scouting some health care stocks, they dont get hit bad during market turmoil.

CTC.A only because I have a stock purchase plan. Buy $1, get 50c back at end of year.
They've been down since november ($87 --> $50).
However they are a long term investment.

Yup. There are some major bargains to be had for value investors.

There's an investing thread in PDD that talks a bit about this - it's not very active thread in terms of replies but good advice in there from time to time - posts from July forward being more relevant.
