Investing Pittsburgh: A Little Weekly Wrapup

Posted by Burgher Jon
/ December 21, 2008 / Leave a comment

This wrapup is little because little happened. The Dow Jones was up 0.17% and the Pittsburgh Fund was up 0.45%. It’s nice to be doing almost three times as well as the market, but I’d prefer to be doing it when the market is up 5%. Individually:

  • It’s worth noting that US Steel may have been halted on their ridiculous run, actually down on the week.
  • Heinz was up, mostly because of the dividend.
  • PNC was down (but up from where bought it), is only a buck or so off its 52 week low.

Investing Pittsburgh is a regular part of this blog. It details the ins and outs of a mock portfolio of Pittsburgh Stocks invested and managed by me. For a list of all of the previous “Investing Pittsburgh” posts, click here.
