Diversify and Rebalance? Why
Be Average?
The financial industry has hypnotized us
into believing diversification and
rebalancing is the only worthy investment
strategy. But diversification inherently
means owning a little bit of everything —
which is the formula for achieving precisely
average performance! Rebalancing further ensures
we
won't stray far from average. No other industry
proclaims average performance is the best
you can achieve. Fortunately, it's not true
here either.
Change the Game!
To achieve a different result
requires a different approach. Price momentum has long been proven
the best predictor of future returns. Simply
by owning momentum leaders and avoiding
momentum laggards one can simultaneously
improve returns and reduce risk of loss. No
diversification compromise! SectorSurfer
further maximizes performance utilizing
digital signal processing theory and
automated strategy tuning.
An Extra 10%
Really Matters
Before Retirement:
The
Nest
Egg Value chart
illustrates how an additional 10% annual
return compounds over 15 years to produce a
nest egg four times the value it would have
otherwise had. The earlier you start, the
greater the multiple. It really matters!
After
Retirement: The Nest Egg Annual Income
chart illustrates how portfolio return
affects the inflation-adjusted annual income
you can take, assuming a $100k
nest egg, 2.5% inflation, and 30 years of
retirement to fund. In the illustrated
example, investing in the S&P 500 would
likely allow an income of $14,000/yr.
However, earning an extra 10% increases it to
$36,000/year. Again, it really matters!

What is True Sector Rotation?
|
The Trend is Your Friend
Trends and fads are an inherent part of
human character. It takes time for
information to spread, to be understood, and
to be acted on. This creates momentum.
Price
momentum is found in all capital
markets, including stocks, bonds,
treasuries, and currencies. By its very definition,
"trend" means that information from the recent
past tells you something about the near future.
SectorSurfer's trend analysis algorithms use modern digital
signal processing theory to optimally
extract trend signals from noisy market
data.
|
True Sector Rotation
The
market cycle is tied to the economic cycle.
Each market sector performs best during a
portion of the economic cycle. If you think
of each market sector as a piston in your
investment engine, the smoothest, most
powerful ride will be achieved when each of
the major market sectors is represented in
your portfolio ... but only while each is
delivering its power stroke.
By owning only the top trend
leaders and avoiding trend laggards one can
simultaneously improve returns and reduce
risk of loss.
That's True Sector Rotation!
Diversify and Rebalance?
Diversification inherently yields
precisely average performance. Master investor Warren Buffet
instructs us:
"Wide diversification is only
required when investors do not understand
what they are doing.

How
StormGuard Reduces Risk
|
Risk is About Losing Money!
The definition of risk depends on who you ask. The financial industry
uses
the coefficient
of variation (CV) to measure risk, which tells you how
wiggly the line on the chart is, but not the
probability of losing real money. Treating
both up and down-moves equally as risk is an
unfortunate consequence. Only down-moves
contribute to real loss. SectorSurfer's risk
measure is the
probability of
a 15% loss
in a year.
StormGuard
Measures Market Health
Not only do SectorSurfer's trend-following
algorithms inherently steer around and avoid
poorly performing funds, but its StormGuard
Indicator monitors overall market health
and advises a move to the safety of a money
market fund when market storms approach. The StormGuard Indicator is
calculated daily from a basket of broad
market indicators.
Optimized for Minimum Probability of Loss
The StormGuard Indicator optimally tunes
itself for the minimum probability of loss
according to the character of the
constituent funds/stocks of each
SectorSurfer Strategy by balancing the
probability of whipsaw loss from reacting
too quickly
to market dips against the
probability of loss from reacting too slowly
to major downturns.
Diversify and Rebalance?

"Risk can be
greatly reduced by concentrating on only a
few holdings."

SectorSurfer's Algorithm
Validation
|
Overview
SectorSurfer's validation is confirmed
by the
validation of each principle detailed in the
paragraphs below.
Trend Signals Exist in Market Data
In his 1996 book
Chaos and Order in the Capital Markets,
Edgar Peters applied the Hurst Range/Scale
analysis method to data from all capital
markets, including stocks, bonds,
commodities, and treasuries. He found that they
all have a significant short-term trend component that
dissipates after numerous months.
• See Hurst Exponent Reveals Trends on
the Sector Rotation Theory Page for further
technical information.
Momentum Strategies Really Work
When you can get the media, industry, and
academia to agree that something is real and
works, then you know you really have
something. These three momentum trading
articles do just that:
• The Economist:
Momentum in Financial Markets. A survey
of strategy results and expert commentary.
• Columbine Capital
Price Momentum - a Twenty Year Research Effort. Industry momentum white paper.
• Jegadeesh & Titman
Profitability of Momentum Strategies.
A fundamental academic momentum paper.
SectorSurfer's Performance is
Trend Based
How can we tell that the trend signal we
extract from the noisy market data really
does drive SectorSurfer's performance? The
Hurst exponent measures the quality of the
trend signal and has a month-end bump in its
character. This bump is a fingerprint
likewise found in the character of
SectorSurfer Strategy performance.
• See SectorSurfer's
Trend Fingerprint on the Sector Rotation Theory Page for
further technical information.
Trend Signals Exhibit
Stationarity
Stationarity refers to the character of a
random process remaining the same, such as
the distribution in heights of men, shoe
sizes for women, or trend lengths in market
data. Stationarity enables one to
confidently manufacture shoes of various
sizes even though the shoe size of the next
customer is unknown. Backtesting provides
assessment of market character. Stationarity
in market character enables strategy design
to learn from the past in order to improve
one's batting average for future investment
choices.

SectorSurfer's
Improved
Technology
|
Background
"Diversify and Rebalance" was born with MPT (Modern
Portfolio Theory) in 1950 when we had
rotary dial telephones. Today the telecom
industry has wireless digital cell phones
with touch screens, video cameras, voice
dialing, and GPS maps.
But,
the financial industry is still selling us 1950s
diversify and rebalance?
Extracting the Trend Signal is Everything
If the EMH (efficient
market hypothesis) were true, the future
would be random and the
Hurst exponent of market data would be
exactly 0.5, but it's not, because market data
contains significant trends. A trend
means that information from the recent past
tells you something about the near future.
There is nothing more important than to
apply the best signal processing
technology available to extract the trend
signal from noisy market data to improve one's
investment batting average. (Here's why, MPT is blind to trends.)
Differential Signal Processing
One of the most fundamental methods for improving the
signal-to-noise
ratio in data communications is
to eliminate common mode noise via
differential signal processing. That's why it's built into
Ethernet and USB.
Most charting and analysis software
evaluates ticker symbols independently,
which taints the analysis with common mode
market noise resulting in excess whipsaw
losses reacting to noise unrelated to its
own relative performance. SectorSurfer's
simultaneous
differential analysis eliminates common mode noise.
Matched Filter Theory
Matched filter theory provides the basis by which
trend signals can be optimally extracted
from noisy market data. The well-known academic paper
Profitability of Momentum Strategies, by Jegadeesh & Titman
used a simple equally weighted SMA (Simple
Moving Average) of length 6 months as its
trend measure. However, neither the SMA nor 6 months are near optimum
compared to the Matched Filter Theory solution. Simply put:
better trend analysis produce better results. See this
summary comparison and the Strategy Hall of Fame.
Automated Strategy Optimization
Investors familiar with technical chart
indicators know how tedious it is to
determine which indicators and what
parameters to use. SectorSurfer completely
automates this process for you. Better
results, less time!
|
Welcome!
Market momentum has
long been proven to be the best predictor of future
price movements.
SectorSurfer automates the process of selecting the best
stock to own — no emotional bias! Its
high performance trend following sector rotation algorithms keep you in the best stocks during bull markets and its
StormGuard
TM
algorithms move you to the safety of cash during
prolonged bear markets. Only by owning the top trend
leader and avoiding the trend laggards can you
simultaneously improve returns and reduce the
probability of loss. SectorSurfer evaluates your
Strategies daily
and sends an email
Trade Alert when you have trades to make. We also have
many high performance
mutual fund and ETF Strategies to choose from,
or you can create your own Custom
Strategy (see how here). If you
prefer having personal professional advice, please
contact one of our listed
SectorSurfing Professional Financial Advisors.
TopDog Strategy Performance
SectorSurfer is a trend following trading system for
stock investment.
Each TopDog Strategy is based on a well known
Stock Market Index and consists of a selection of up to 12 stocks
from that index. It is SectorSurfer's job to determine
which one stock, and only one stock, from the set of 12
to own at any given time. Simply by determining which of
the stocks is the top trend leader and owning only that
stock for the next month SectorSurfer achieves the
performance depicted by the charts below.
To better understand how SectorSurfer
Strategies achieve such high performance, please click each
of the title-slides above (or the text
below each thumbnail image) to review the topic's
information in more detail. The charts below have numerous
mouse-over hot spots that provide a brief popup text
description of the chart object, and many chart
objects can be clicked to link to a more complete
description. For a more theoretical discussion, please

Sector Rotation Theory
page.
TopDog Market Index Strategies
TopDog
Stock Strategies
The table below contains numerous TopDog Strategy
examples arranged by the market index its stocks belong
to. SectorSurfer's trend following algorithm
simultaneously improves returns and reduces risk by
owning only the one best trending stock of the Strategy
at any given time.
While the
popular
Dogs of the Dow investment strategy suggests
that an underdog with great dividends will likely lead
the pack in the near future, many underdogs are not just
temporarily out of favor, but have serious problems. It's
never time to own an underdog until it actually becomes
a TopDog trend leader. We recommend review of
this material about stocks versus sectors to
better understand why stock Strategies need
occasional freshening.

Note: Individual stocks are more volatile than mutual funds
or ETFs as they are not diversified and carry more risk of
sharp loss from news about quarterly earnings misses,
management scandals, and other adverse events. We strongly
recommend use of the
Prudent Investor Rule with stock
Strategies:
To reduce portfolio risk and volatility, invest no more than
20% of your funds in any one stock. That translates
into "Post-Surfing
Diversification" — five or more Strategies each
selecting one excellent stock.
Comparison To "Dogs of the Dow"
The
chart to the right compares the TopDog DJ-65 Composite
market index
Strategy to the
well-known "Dogs of the Dow" strategy performance
as reported by
TheStreet.com. The Dogs of the Dow trading system buys the Dow Jones
Industrial stocks (DJIA Index) that are relatively low in price compared
to their 52 week high, but which still pay relatively high
dividends. Dogs of the Dow theory says these stocks will
more likely perform better in the near future than their
peers.
Our TopDog Strategies send the Dogs of the Dow back to the
doghouse! A stock with TopDog leadership status is a much
better predictor of future performance than is a stock
suffering with underdog status. Dogs of the Dow theory
presumes that stocks are often cyclically punished without
cause and will recover. However, stocks are also punished for poor execution
unrelated to market cycles. In the end, there is no
justifiable reason to own a poor performing stock until it
actually is trending higher at a stronger rate than its peers. Only the trend is your
friend!
U.S. Stocks Available for Strategies: NYSE, NASDAQ,
AMEX
Our database, from FastTrack, contains well over 3,000 U.S.
Stocks from the three major exchanges, include many foreign
stocks listed for trading on the U.S. markets as an
ADR (American
Depositary Receipt). Popular market index lists
are shown below for reference. However, we generally do not
make new stocks available until they have about 3
years of data. SectorSurfer's algorithm cannot properly
characterize a stock that has not seen a variety of market
conditions, and you risk the possibility of unexpected
Strategy behavior in the future. If you must have a stock
with a shorter history, you may be in love with it for the
wrong reason. The right reason is increasing the
probability of higher returns and decreasing the
probability of loss. Fresh hype is not a sound reason for a
financial marriage — character matters.

Retired? Employed Elsewhere? Over 591/2?
Upgrade
your 401(k) to an IRA to Unleash SectorSurfer's
True Sector Rotation
Potential!
You can escape from the paltry performance of your 401(k)'s over-diversified funds by rolling them over into an IRA account
where you'll have access to a wide variety of country and
sector
funds
that will unleash the full performance potential of SectorSurfer's True Sector Rotation algorithms.
Good returns are required to reduce "retirement risk," which is
the risk at age 65 that your savings aren't sufficient and you
may have to work longer or reduce your standard of living. While
traditional diversification addresses the relatively short
term investment risk, its paltry returns can lead to longer term
retirement risk problems. Don't win a battle
but lose the war.
Learn Here
how to convert your 401(k) to an IRA. Then check out the
many excellent Safety
Strategies on our Hall of Fame page.
We Believe:
• High performance investment
software should be for everyone — not just big Wall Street
firms.
• Diversification is not a justifiable reason to own poorly
performing funds — they hurt your portfolio.
• Great investment advice isn't a fund sorting tool — it's
automatically selecting this month's best fund.
