No major changes have occurred in portfolio constitution, apart from a continued concentration in 2 major positions. For this purpose, shares in Bank of Nova Scotia and GSK PLC were sold and proceeds reinvested in Eagle Bancorp and Western Union. From a macroeconomic standpoint, Federal Reserve policymakers on Friday signaled they are ready to kick off a series of interest rate cuts at the U.S. central bank's meeting in two weeks, noting a cooling in the labor market that could accelerate into something more dire in the absence of a policy shift. We know that lower interest rates generally contribute to higher stock valuations. How it will be in this case โ€“ no one knows. Only time will show. However, I do believe that our portfolio is fine tuned for lower interest rate environment. ๐™‹๐™ค๐™ง๐™ฉ๐™›๐™ค๐™ก๐™ž๐™ค ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜„ Current Holdings as of 01/09/2024: Eagle Bancorp Inc โ€“ 34%; Western Union Company โ€“ 21%; 3M Co โ€“ 18%; Imperial Brands โ€“ 17%; BNP Paribas โ€“ 6%; Herbalife Nutrition Ltd โ€“ 4%; Cash โ€“ 0%. ๐˜ฝ๐™ง๐™š๐™–๐™ ๐™™๐™ค๐™ฌ๐™ฃ ๐™—๐™ฎ ๐™จ๐™š๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ง: Financials โ€“ 61% Consumer Defensive โ€“ 20% Industrials โ€“ 19% Cash โ€“ 0% $NSDQ100 $BTC Regards, Vlad.
