May was a good month for the Value Investment Fund. During this period, the Fund increased $7,966 in value over April 30th’s balance, about 4.73%. Whereas the market as a whole lost an additional 1%. This results from adherence to the four core principles of value investing.<\/span><\/p>\n During May, the Fund expanded the portfolio to include two new positions from among the existing 48 potential investments. The first included three separate tranche purchases of The Walt Disney Company<\/span><\/strong><\/a> and the second was an opportunity presented when Essex Property Trust, Inc. dropped below its intrinsic value. In addition, the Fund sold two separate option contracts in both positions. The Walt Disney Company position was exercised within a few days of that sale and the current option contract for Essex Property Trust, Inc. remains active. The sale of PUT options (three separate companies) generated $3,019 of realized income after associated transaction fees. Please note, PUT options are a contract sold that allows the buyer to force the Fund to purchase that security at pre-set price. The Fund sells these PUT options as it desires to own these securities at a certain depressed market price. It is considered an excellent tool to own stock at a very low price and if the PUT is not exercised, well, at least some income was earned from the opportunity. Finally, Wells Fargo did issue a dividend worth $271 to the Fund. This dividend sits as a receivable on the books of record as Wells Fargo will pay the dividend during the first week of June.<\/span><\/p>\n For those readers just learning about this site’s Value Investment Fund or wanting to learn more about Value Investing, it is suggested that you first sign up to receive e-mail notifications (the entry form at the end of this article).

Wells Fargo stock price peaked at $57.08 net of fees to dispose. The facilitator admits to erring by not adhering to the original preset sale point of $58 per share in the market. In effect, I changed the sell point because I got greedy (stupid move on my part) and increased the sell point to $63 per share. I reread Lesson 18<\/strong><\/a><\/span> about churning the portfolio. Again, once you have set your intrinsic, buy and sell points, a prudent value investor sticks to them. Lesson learned; I will not do that again. Had I adhered to the principle set forth, the Fund would be $11,000 greater in value net of taxes. Sometimes in life, you just have to admit you screwed up. I screwed up.<\/span><\/p>\n The Value Investment Fund’s current exposure related to PUT options is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n Market prices on May 31, 2022 are:<\/span><\/p>\n There were eight transactions during the month of May, 2022. Four of them generated realized income totaling $3,290. The other four were ‘Buys’ of stock from two different companies. The following is a detail transaction register of activity during May 2022:<\/span><\/p>\n Realized Income<\/strong><\/span> Portfolio Position Activity<\/strong><\/span> Overall, the Value Investment Fund is performing remarkably well in relation to the balance of the market during the first five months of 2022. This is even with the error associated with the failure to sell Wells Fargo back in second week of January. Overall, the market is down at least 9% as indicated by the DOW; this reflects the top 30 companies. The reality is that the market overall is down about 13% (S&P 500, S&P Composite 1500) since January 1, 2022. The S&P 500 and Composite 1500 are the closest comparative indices to this Fund’s selection pool of investments.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n This Fund’s facilitator recognizes that in order to achieve at least a 20% gross return by year end 2022, two actions are necessary. First, the site’s pool of potential investments must be expanded to no less than 60 members spread among at least eight pools (recently added the Entertainment Pool). Secondly, the market must continue to slip in total worth which would bring some of the existing possible potential investments in line with their respective intrinsic value points and possible ‘Buy’ opportunities. For now, the facilitator has to continue to be patient; which is one of the four core principles of value investing. The Value Investment Fund is currently sitting on a strong cash position at $44,007 (25% of the portfolio). This will allow the Fund to act when the conditions are beneficial.<\/span>\u00a0Act on Knowledge.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n
