Tim, you monster! How could you?
Wait, wait, it isn’t what you think. Some of you may recall that my father passed away late last year. He had invested in a variety of items, and as an experiment, I decided to track them for the year.
As you can see, he hasn’t done poorly – – an annualized 22% return – – but it’s pretty much in line with the market in general.

Your humble host decided, also in January, to select my top 25 picks and put $10,000 into each one. As of now, 19 of these are up, and 6 are down, but I’ve managed to beat my late father with a present annualized return of 27.5%.
Some more aggressive choices like Coinbase (+148%) and both JD and KD (each up about 66%) made the difference. The worst loser is PATH, which has lost about a third of its value. Oh, and our super-boring friend CALM (the egg seller, of all things) is sporting a handsome 82.6% return since January 19th.

Dad, wherever you are, I hope you are proud of my chart-based picks!
