 PERFORMANCE

A $100,000 portfolio growing to over $1 million in 3 years, powered by our model portfolio performance and the miracle of compounding. Is that possible? Well, you will learn about it as you read further.
The performance of our model portfolios has been strong by all benchmark metrics. The Model Portfolios have significantly outperformed their respective benchmark indexes, as well as the stated objective of the particular model portfolio. Stock market performance means rate of return on investment. However, the numerous ways that the investment returns are calculated can significantly affect the final outcome and lead to inappropriate claims and a distorted picture for investors.

WEEKLY MARKET COMMENTARY
 2012 - January 23
|
The stock market is revealing its upbeat tone. There is a steely resolve to the uptrend. Industry groups are breaking out - biotech, pharmaceuticals, oil and oil services, and medical devices to name a few. Even beaten down sectors like building materials and the Chinese stocks are demonstrating strength. To demonstrate the hunger for some small-cap stocks and investor desire to be part of a home-run, we had added BVSN to our portfolio for Mon-Jan 16, but the stock gapped much higher and consequently we had to reset our buy price from the Fri close of $17.57 to $19.50, about $2 higher. BVSN closed the week at $27, a gain of 54% from prior week. A stock with a small float and volatility like that of BVSN requires a Rolling Stop-loss, as it's hard to update stop-losses daily in a weekly newsletter. So we will have a rolling stop at 10% - if stock rises slide up the Stop Loss higher to 10% below the high price. The underlying strength of the economy is manifesting itself in the stock market. This is the perfect time for disciplined investing. The market is in a rallying mode, and we remain fully invested. Graycell Advisors View Archive...

OUR PHILOSOPHY
|
Our investment philosophy is fairly simple. Maximize returns and minimize losses. Sounds like common sense. But this philosophy is one of the hardest things to learn and practice in the investment process. In the near-daily pursuit of best possible returns and the heat-of-the-moment investment decisions, investors often willfully or unwittingly disregard the most common rules of investing.
Maximizing Returns and Minimizing Losses can occur only if investors follow an investment system. Once they gain confidence in the system, investors need to have the discipline to operate within the rules of the system. This is easier said than done.
