Dear Diary,

I sold shares of JAVA for $9.19 a share on June 24, 2009, a 2% gain in a Cash on Sale Arbitrage over a 15 day holding period. While I continue to hold half the position, I needed some cash to live on.

Today, I sold half my GE position for $11.69 a share, a 64% gain from the $7.18 average purchase price at a 70% discount to Net Quick Assets back in the March time frame.

I took the proceeds of GE and reinvested them into BARE, a near Holy Grail situation that only lacks Zero Long term Debt and the ratio of $2 in Total Assets to $1 Shareholder Equity.
