Several times a year, a Confident Investor must reevaluate the companies in the portfolio. Keeping your money in a stock that no longer qualifies as a “Good” company can end up hurting your investment performance a great deal. Also, there are a lot of Good Companies so losing the worst of the best is not going to impact the ability to have a balanced portfolio. Over the coming days, this site will evaluate each stock on the Watch List.
