After a strong run the local market went sideways for two days then pushed up from a bullish flag type pattern in limited trading Monday. The index is now just above the 6,500 level which was first reached back in September 2007.

Magellan Financial Group has been in a sideways funk for a while and we switched out of this into a faster moving Hearts and Minds Investment which has recently been making new highs. We may buy back in at a later date.

One of the Aussie stocks that made the Hearts and Minds picks was CSL which has just been creeping up of late and recently moved out of a triangular type congestion pattern. The company’s massive R and D program has produced new products than now account for 40 per cent of revenues.

Other Aussie listed picks at the Hearts and Minds conference included Treasury Wine Estate pictured below and Temple and Webster.

Silver Lake Resources has finally fallen through our stop loss level and we sold the remainder of the original holding after a decent stay in the educational portfolio.

A company that has been in the educational portfolio before at different times is Impedimed which recently moved up through a resistance level on big volumes after a really big decline. We bought a parcel today.

A weekly chart of Impedimed showing the scale of the fall from 2016. Perhaps a ten bagger in the making if all goes well, time will tell.

Credit Corp moved up out of a consolidation type pattern and may run into some resistance at these levels. A possible trade if price comes back a bit, watching.

Shopping centres mob Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield has been one of the best performers among the big caps since the news of a possible vaccine success.

A monthly chart of Platinum Asset Management shows price has bounced up at quite a decent rate from these levels in the past. Reckon it is worth a punt in this low interest rate environment.
