this year was certainly interesting though. portfolio was doing well up until august when europe happened and wiped out all my gains for the year and more. if i hadn't diversified earlier in the year into preferred shares and short term bonds, this year would've been drastically different for me.

i'm probably up 8-10% for 2011. most of it from investing in probably the least exciting sectors around (groceries/supermarkets being one lol).
