Eoin's personal portfolio: stock market index positions closed at profit and shorts opened December 6th 2022

Eoin Treacy's view

One of the questions subscribers ask most often is how to find details of my open trades. To make it easier I will simply repost the latest summary on a daily basis until there is a change.

I took the profit on my Hang Seng long on December 6th at 19415 against by purchase price of 19060 for a March contract on November 30th.

I then opened a short on the same day in the Nasdaq-100 for a March contract at 11875 including spread-bet dealing costs.

I also bought the March 17th Amazon $50 put for $0.37.

On November 4th I dipped back into the gold market; opening a long in the December contract at $1676.

I plan to roll my cash position at the end of every month into either short-term notes or expiring bonds. In my SEP I currently hold the T 2.125% 12/31/2022.

I bought an investment position in the DoubleLine Income Solutions Fund on November 10th. It was trading at a discount of 1.29%, is leveraged 30.48% and invests in high yield and mortgage bonds. The fund is currently yielding 11.5% and makes distributions monthly. I paid $11.485 including dealing costs.

I also initiated an investment long in the Global X Silver Miners ETF paying $27.57 on November 10th.  

I also increased my investment long in the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETT on the 4th paying $24.74 for another equal-sized position. My original position in the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF was purchased on March 25th 2020 at $20.12. I bought another unit at $35.79 on December 1st 2020.
