Here's our performance table:

$DALN, $AAPL, $SCS, $ATRO, $LYFT, and $ECG keyed the winner side, while $PTLO, $PGR, and $LULU were the main detractors.

My performance is here.

Apple hurt the overall performance, while the core portfolios were doing even better, relatively, until a June earnings bump or two.

After the macro stuff, I review our quarter - down, but a little better than the market - and discuss over a dozen stocks we either own, added, or sold in the quarter.

At the end of the day, there are always problems on the market.

This set of circumstances is unique, but so was 2020 and 2008.

I’m excited to share my Q4 2024 letter from Middle Coast Investing.

Here are our results. We finished the year strong, beating both the S&P 500 and the Russell, though ultimately, we lagged the S&P and had a more reversionary performance after 2023’s success.

(Our results are in bold)

I've given out figuring out what's happening on this 'chart'. What am I missing?

I biked to the worst of this week’s Spain flooding (5-7 km from where I live) today and it’s still a huge mess: busted cars, piles of ruined furniture, mud everywhere.

Also inspiring to see 1000s of people going to help with water, brooms, buckets, and whatever else.

Look for the helpers.
