Over the past few years my portfolio has gone through a good deal of reshuffling, some for the better and others... not so much. Over the past several years my Dad had success with Louis Navellier's recommendation service, which influenced some of my holdings. 

AUY - Yamana Gold
CL - Colgate Palmolive 
CMG - Chipotle Mexican Grill
COST - Costco Wholesale
HAIN - Hain Celestial
MNST - Monster Energy
NFLX - Netflix
PNRA - Panera Bread
SBUX - Starbucks
WFM - Whole Foods Market

Costco and Colgate I recently purchased for dividends and perhaps more security from volatility - two solid companies that won't be going anywhere (probably up or down), but will pay out the dividends as they chug away. 

Right now nothing is really jumping out at me to purchase, so I have a bit of cash on the side waiting for an opportune moment. When the market is ticking up like this, it can be challenging to make a purchase decision. For now I am attempting to practice patience and either A) continue searching for a desirable investment, or B) wait until a current holding or watch list pick gets slammed by the market.
