How to beat the S&P 500

Heres the latest update of my portfolio. Made a nice gain on McDonalds so thought it was time to reap the profits. I am also happy to see that the price of Coinstar CSTR has dropped since I sold it. McDonalds is near an all time high so I would expect a similar drop. In both cases, I believe I got out at the right time because I wasn't too greedy, and it's paid off, my portfolio is outperforming the S&P 500!
