48% Cash; Reducing Positions

Posted By Barry Ritholtz On January 20, 2011 @ 9:52 am In Investing | Comments Disabled

I mentioned in comments last week we were 48% cash in our Long/Short Portfolio; One of the asset allocation models we run is now 20% cash, 20% bonds.

As we are starting to get into the meat of the earnings season, more and more profit taking is likely. We are overdue for a pullback, and the past few earnings seasons have ended with markets dropping. Hence, our (small) QID) position.

Our current holdings/entry prices/weightings in our managed accounts Long Short portfolio are after the jump.

Recent sales:

-EK (recently stopped out)
-BWA, IDCC and RAX was sold off several weeks ago.

Current Holdings (still long):

ACI
CVE
SU
UNH
ATVI
ATI
SOLR
PZZA
AM
