Investing Pittsburgh: Ouch, was that the sky falling? Part II

Posted by Burgher Jon

I missed the whole, bottom falling out of the metals market prediction. Though I think a recovery will be in order before too long. In fact I’m inches from buying more US Steel.

The good news is, I did foresee the falling of the market as a whole and we had a VERY small portfolio so all this bad news hasn’t hit us too hard. Tomorrow we may have to buy some of our positions back. I’ll keep you posted.

By the way, I’m looking in to other stocks we might purchase since I’m kind of bored with the same 6 stocks.

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.
