Why I Bought Illumina Graphic_rating_buy ILMN
-1.25%
in 41 days

Wednesday on twitter, I "tweeted" that I was most likely going to get long Illumina (ILMN), and that's exactly what I did. If you haven't noticed, there's been a big rotation into healthcare/biotech/bioscience companies as of late. I already have exposure to this somewhat through Gilead (GILD), Biiogen (BIIB), and Thermo Fisher (TMO). But, the positions are smaller relative to my overall portfolio. So, I wanted to increase my exposure there while still maintaining diversification in the various health/bio sectors. In this market, you play what's working.

(closed on 07/23/08)
Since we are running low on cash I am looking at a few names that have held up in this abyss (shuffling money from the strong to the weak), to help raise some cash. In a real mutual fund I would hope to open the mail and see a whole slew of new cash coming in as investors see this is a "great buying opportunity" to get shares of Rising Tide Growth on the cheap ;) but since this is a closed system once I am low on cash I need to find more cash by selling something. Or if I got a slew of panic stricken calls saying get me out of this market I'd need some cash to send to you. So I'd rather...
