Grant’s Monthly Stock Gain & Loss Report – 2014 May

Welcome to my May 2014 Stock Gain & Loss Report!

Every month I will post my stock gains and losses by using the BTMA Stock Analyzer.

In May, most of my profits came from selling FCFS (First Cash Financial Services, Inc.). I also had good returns from selling BRLI (Bio-Reference Laboratories Inc.).

Why do I post this information online?

I do it for 3 main reasons:

1. To be transparent.
I like to be up-front and show you that I’m a real person who actually invests in the stock market.

2. It’s nice to brag about good months and get positive feedback during those not-so-good months.

3. I hate being told that I can’t do something and stock investing is just another area where people have told me: “You couldn’t possibly do well. What do you know about stocks?” etc.

I want to prove that everyday people like myself can take control of their own finances, start investing with a common-sense approach, and produce better than average results.
