Headline News: The Swine Investors lost -1.12% in October. Dave Pierce suggested we establish an income producing component to our Portfilio during his "Education Presentation", using instruments like Royalty Trusts. Dave Mitchell's "Action Presentation" was that we "hold" and do nothing, that is, we take NO action. So we sold Hillenbrand and re-bought Apple again.
Note: Be sure to read the detailed minutes sent to you by Secretary Mitchell.....and check the schedule below for assignments next month......
Poker News: Here is a letter to the editor from Jerry Doffing: "I am compelled to write this letter immediately after our meeting last night. I was yet another quite memorable occasion. No, not the fact we purchased a new stock or sold an old one, but rather the activity after the meeting at the Liars Poker Game. Yes a memorable occasion indeed after the reception of not one dollar from President Nyberg but two in the same night! I cannot express in words you how happy my wife was, and consequently myself. Kudos to President Nyberg for a very memorable evening."

What is "Swine Investing?" The Comsopolitan Investment Club contains members who are Bulls and some who are Bears. We have Swing Traders, and "Buy & Holders". Some dabble in derivitives and Exchange Traded Funds. We sometimes buy for Capital Appreciation and sometimes for income. We have members who are very knowledgeable about stocks and others who know precious little. We have members who study charts and others who pour over balance sheets, income statements and cash Flow statements. Some are bottom-up investors, some are top-down. Some spit on the IBD and some spit on the Value Line. We've got 'em all, except you, so fee free to visit, and check us out at our next meeting. Oh yeah, we play "Liars Poker" following the formal meeting too. OINK! Find Us
