On Oct 5 we bought 5000 INSG at $1.52 (see article here) On Oct 9 we bought 6000 DSNY at $0.21 So the portfolio becomes
So far Nutanix, Sketchers and JD.com are up pretty decently but it doesn't mean all that much after two weeks or less. INSG and DSNY are small speculative stocks that are liable to be more volatile.

Analyst Ittai Kidron maintains an Outperform on Nutanix's stock with an unchanged $34 price target and gave four reasons for the reiteration in a Friday note. 1. Nutanix's OEM partnerships are "encouraging," especially within its AHV Hypervisor, which is seeing traction from customers who recognize its value and use case breadth, the analyst said. Xi-Cloud and CALM are on track for commercial deployments, while the company's pipeline traction with Dell and International Business Machines Corp. IBM 0.14% are starting to emerge, according to the Oppenheimer note. (See Kidron's track record here.) 2. Nutanix is "examining ways to further strengthen customer value through software differentiation [and] flexibility," Kidron said. One potential strategy being reviewed is a software-only model which would remove the hardware contribution and generate a 25 to 30 percent hit to the top line, but create an offsetting boost to gross margins in the mid-80 percent range, the analyst said. < 3. DRAM supplies remain "tight" and support a headwind that will likely continue for the near-term, Kidron said. The company does secure DRAM availability two to three months ahead of time, although any gross margin relief is "unlikely." Sales productivity and leverage could be a source of some incremental margin gains, according to Oppenheimer. 4. The competitive landscape remains "largely unchanged and positively biased" for Nutanix. The company's leadership position also remains "solid," but does come at a time when some of its peers are still developing a presence, Kidron said. "We come away comfortable that overall trends are steady and that Nutanix's pipeline continues to build on multiple fronts."

Well, we're only three weeks into this portfolio but we already have two big winners with Nutanix and Sketchers. The latter posted stellar Q3 results just now: Shares of Skechers (NYSE:SKX) soar in after-hours trading after a resounding Q3 profit beat off of broad-based sales leverage. A 26% jump in the company's international wholesales business helped lead to a 16% increase in total revenue during the quarter. Management cited strong results out the U.K. and China. Gross profit was up 190 bps to 47.5% of sales. Skechers guided for Q4 revenue of $860M to $885M. Previously: Skechers beats by $0.15, beats on revenue (Oct. 19) SKX +20.27% AH to $28.90, a level not seen since the middle part of August. Skechers soars after jogging past profit estimates - Skechers USA Inc. (NYSE:SKX) | Seeking Alpha And we argued that they were cheap and the worries were overblown:

We bought some new stuff the last couple of days
See article here The portfolio now becomes
All green with two big winners (SKX and NTNX), it's a nice start but very early days yet.

Darn, we considered buying a second lot of Sketchers (SKX), because the shares were so cheap (as we argued here), but it was only a few days before earnings so we waited that out. Our bad, look what happened next:
Yes, you're seeing that right, that's a 41.45% rally in a single day.. It took our SHU portfolio above 10% return in just three weeks since the launch:
Mind you, the portfolio has three smallcaps (INSG, DSNY, XXII) which are likely to be very volatile but they haven't moved yet.
