Skipping the 13G's

Truly there were hundreds of 13G's filed today & I didn't know that I could keep up with them while maintaining my sanity so I'm skipping them until the reallocations from the hedge & mutual funds are pretty well set. That should enable me to track & post more often. Anyhow, what a day.....Yellen throws a curve ball to me that she will likely reverse tomorrow. I was set up in volatility (TVIX) & thought gold would take more of a step back so I also had DUST going into today. TVIX worked for me & hopefully DUST will pull through tomorrow. I also stayed in Disney (DIS) & still really don't get why great earnings can be hit so hard by ESPN. Whatever...it's a great company & maybe I'll average down at some point here. The world markets have all become very difficult to predict & volatile. That's why I'll stick to swing trading for the most part.

The insider buys have well out numbered the sales in recent days. Let's start there with today's largest buy via Form 4 for $90,387,726 worth of TPX shares. AutoNation (AN) followed in second today with $34,822,167 worth of share purchased by Mr. Bill Gates. In third with just under $23 million worth of shares bought was for CBG. I'd like to give TSLA an honorable mention though way down the list with just under $4.5 million worth of shares bought by Elon Musk.

As per my "follow the money" look, the CFO's that were buying shares of their company on Wednesday work for: BOFI, RRC, NWL, PRLB, WRI, SPA, TMHC, AWH, CUB, MNK, UE & CPAH. Whereas the CFO's selling their shares work for: CTCT, CB, IP, PCCC, TEL, EGN, WDFC, CLMS, WY, SPR, IQNT, GUID, PBI, RNR, BWLD, OTTR, DFT, BGC, TSCO, WWW, EPZM, IT, TWO, JNJ, FAST, INGN, EQIX, PCCC, W, CDNS, MSCI & FBRC.

The largest sale today went to Facebook (FB) with sales totalling just under $115 million worth of shares sold. This was followed by Alphabet (GOOG) in a distant second with nearly $23 million worth of shares sold by it's co-founder Brin Sergey. The 2 trading days prior, Lawrence Page had major sales of his stake in GOOG, too.

That's really all I have noted for now. The markets are crazy thus far in 2016 so pay attention to any companies that you are invested in because things can change quickly. I hope that this helps out somebody out there. Also, I hope everyone is able to find green in their portfolios tomorrow.
