“I put my money where my mouth is. I also put food in there, but not at the same time as my money.”
-Anthony J. Alfidi, Founder and CEO
(Drumroll, please.) Ta-da! Here it is, folks. The Alpha-D Multi-Strategy Portfolio is the real world implementation of Alfidi Capital’s investment philosophy. Its individual holdings represent the absolute values of the long and short positions that our founder, Anthony J. Alfidi, has taken with his own money in whatever accounts he holds. Please remember that Alfidi Capital does NOT recommend this or any other portfolio as any kind of solution for anyone other than our firm’s founder. The published report specifically omits target weights and other metrics to discourage the casual reader from reverse-engineering it for their own use. In other words, don’t try this at home. If this portfolio’s concepts help you learn something, then good for you.
A lot of thinking went into this portfolio. Tons, literally. The heavy lifting behind the Alpha-D concept is spelled out in the investment philosophy below.

The portfolio report below is a periodic snapshot of our founder’s positions. It is updated whenever our founder makes a buy or sell decision (usually quarterly, sometimes less frequently). The latest version is at the bottom of the list.
(Please note that publication of the periodic snapshots has been suspended pending redesign of the report format. Look for the new edition in mid-2010).
