http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/18452 The WCM figures summarize spreadsheet analysis of nearly 239 portfolios for the period from June 30 2007 (the last WCM Peak market value) thru September 18, 2009 (a high point achieved after a prolonged correction in the markets).

Sudden and sharp, that 50% or so correction proved the applicability of a methodology that had fared well in earlier minor downturns. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5669 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5669 Sat, 22 Aug 2015 07:47:53 PST Professional Investor/Manager Steve Selengut walks you through the Market Cycle Investment Management (MCIM) portfolio management process. He'll hold your hand, answer your questions, and do everything short of security selection as you learn how to run your portfolio. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5638 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5638 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 06:21:43 PST Financial Services Website Warning Label http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5643 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5643 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 07:53:04 PST Before Wall Street conned investors into thinking of calendar quarters as short-term and single years as long-term, market cycles were used to test investment strategies. Performance analysis was a test of management style and overall methodology, not a calendar year horse race with one of the popular averages. Bor-ing, yes--- but meaningful. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5678 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5678 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 06:58:35 PST The Working Capital Model (WCM) looks at investment performance differently, less emotionally, and without a whole lot of concern for short-term market value movements. Market value performance evaluation techniques are only used to analyze peak-to-peak market cycle movements over significant time periods. In the WCM, market value is used as an expectation clarifier and an action indicator for the portfolio manager. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5683 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5683 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 07:26:00 PST The Working Capital Model (WCM) looks at investment performance differently, less emotionally, and without a whole lot of concern for short-term market value movements.

Market value, within the WCM, is used only to determine what to buy and/or when to take profits. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5731 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5731 Tue, 08 Dec 2009 10:46:19 PST Unfortunately, investors in general are a lot like teenagers. They know everything immediately; expect instant gratification; take unnecessary risks; fall in love too easily; ignore all voices of experience; prefer the easy approach; and feel that the lessons of the past just can't possibly apply to what's going on now. Duh, dude! http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5693 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5693 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 06:52:15 PST Most people enter the investment process tip first. They hear something, grab an idea from a popular blog, accept a Cramerism or some motley foolishness, and think that they are making investment decisions. Rarely, will the right-now, instant-gratification, Internet-generation speculator think in terms that go beyond tomorrow's breaking news. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5696 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5696 Thu, 10 May 2018 07:29:01 PST The Investment Grade Value Stock Index is a barometer of a small but elite sector of the stock market. Some Investment Grade Value Stocks are included in all averages and indices, but even the Dow Jones Industrial Average includes several issues that are below Investment Grade and very few boast an A+ S & P rating. http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5769 http://net-teams.net/nti/Display.cfm/5769 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 03:12:40 PST
