Flip-flop:

Stock rally after Trump election victory was a good time to clean up portfolio and raise some cash.

I sold stocks of good businesses that were possibly highly valued: BUD, COST, NVAFF, DISH.
I sold oil stocks: GENGF, MCESF, ZPTAF.
I reduced positions a bit in BAC and AXP. I believe both of them are undervalued and I may buy them in the future.
I sold out of BATRK and JLL. These might be somewhat attractively valued stocks in pretty good businesses. However, I decided that I don't have strong enough conviction to hold them at this time.

I started new position in UHAL. It seems to be good business at a good price.
I added a bit of LSXMA and LILA.
