This week my real portfolio is up 3% but my CAPS rating fell from the 80s into the 50s. Why? I think its because half my picks are underperforming the S&P 500 by less than 2% while I have a couple decent-sized winners. Sure I'd like to do well in this CAPS game. But I frankly care more about the returns I get on my real portfolio. One thing is for sure .... if you see me making a recommendation here its because I just barely put my own money into it. And once I close out my real position I'll also close out my CAPS position.
