- The Day My Wallet Stayed Shut at the 70-Point Line Today I bought nothing. The gate I keep, one new name per day at most, had no one standing in front of it: not a single candidate cleared the A-grade bar of 70 points overall. I a…

- The Day I Quietly Filled Just One Slot with KB Financial Today I picked up KB Financial, and only that. The market felt neither hot nor cold, so instead of spreading myself thin I filled one quiet slot. The names I already hold stayed j…
- Closing up today with an empty basket I didn't buy a single new name today. My rule is one stock a day, and not one candidate made it to the gate as an A-grade pick. Forcing a purchase just to fill the slot isn't my s…

- A Quiet Day — Just Trimmed a Shaky Position I didn't add a single new name to the book today. Instead, I sold 3 shares of 042000 to trim that position. I hold myself to one new pick a day, and today nothing cleared my 70-po…
- Today I Didn't Buy Anything — That's the Whole Story I didn't make a new buy today. The market's mood was stuck in that in-between zone — not really pushing up, not really dragging down — and nothing crossed the line I've set for my…
