New positions for my M10/M100 Fund

ISIS
PRSC
LGND
BIOS

I used my big cash position to add these stocks into my Fund.
I am feeling positive about the general market again. Am invested fully with micro value positions. 
Should the market turn South I may feel a lot of hurt.

My M10 & M100 Marketocracy Fund (791branko) - updated

Below are my current holdings.

Quarter2 has been terrific for my fund, returning over 19%. My YTD return is over 51%.

I am more optimistic about the state of our market. It's bubbling along resiliently and I do not see a major danger in the near term (apart from summer being traditionally a weak period for the market).
The general market has very quickly turned negative (stimulas easying announcement, options expiry), am I feeling a little embarrased! Absent of a significant market rally by mid next week I will be reducing my positions (updated 21st June).

I am fully invested in Heathcare stocks with a large position in ACAD.
As always, if the broad market shows signs of weakness I'll reshape my fund.

My Fund is now part of Marketocracy's elite M10 Index and it still features in their M100 Index.
Marketocracy is about to publish their end of 2013 Q1 rankings. My Fund will be shown as ranked #1 for 3 year returns and #5 for 2 year returns. The link below shows my 5 year return.

 I hope to shortly overtake Justin Uyehara for the #1 ranking in 5 year returns of the "Top Ranked Funds".

ASX Stock Market Game - update

 I am now on the leaderboard ranked #51.

This comp ends on the 29th of May so I have 4 weeks to try and catch the leader. There is only a prize for first place $,3000 so I will be adopting an extremely aggressive strategy.
I think I can win so I won't disclose my positions and strategy on the longshot chance that the leaders may find out.

My ASX stock market game performance

I have entered a stock market competition, trading in Australian stocks.
https://myasx.asx.com.au/home/myasx.do

This game is run by the ASX (Australian Securities Exchange), it runs for 3 months so it's not really a serious demonstration of trading skills.
I entered the game late a couple of weeks and unfortunately it gave the leaders about a 10% advantage.

I have risen in the rankings to #104 and hope to be on their leader board soon. Not sure that I can win this comp given its short time frame but I will give it go.

My Marketocracy holdings

Below are my current holdings.
Quarter 1 was terrific for my fund up over 27%. And so far this quarter I'm up over 7%.

I am very concerned about the current short term market state. Terrorism strike, Peninsula tension, Iran hostility, euro debt all have me edge. I have already sold several positions and may increase my cash position. If the market deteriorates quickly I'll buy into short etfs.

My Fund continues to feature in Marketocracy's M100, and it is ranked #1 for 3 year returns.
The link below shows its 5 year return. I will shortly overtake Justin Uyehara for the #1 ranking in 5 year returns if my momentum continues for another month or two.
