Give Me 9 Minutes a Week and I Guarantee You $67,548 a Year
Master trader Jim Fink trades the market for extra cash… and averages $185 per day. $185.06 to be exact. That adds up to $67,548 per year, and if you follow his strategy, you can do the same thing yourself. Why not? All it takes is nine minutes a week. And you don’t have to invest a dime up front.
The overall Power Score remains positive, though off a bit from the last couple of weeks. No major changes as we move through summer so far:
I updated my personal portfolio progress now that we have started a new month. I added to my overall gains, with by far my biggest gainers coming from the Biotech ETF and the Healthcare ETF. Biotech in particular surged to the top of performance. You can see also I added a couple of fields to the end to see what quadrant (of 5) each ETF is performing in, and also whether it was higher or lower than our last update in June:
In all the ETFs…
This past week, Moving into the Top Tier 1 were Semiconductors/SMH, Aerospace & Defense/PPA, Vanguard Europe FTSE/VGK and Bank Stocks/KBE.
Moving into the 5th Tier (lowest, most underperformance) we have iShares Gold ETF/IAU, Powershares Emerging Markets/PCY and iShares 20 Year Treasury Bonds/TLT.
Certainly the areas we’ve avoided for some time have centered around Oil, Natural Gas, Precious Metals, Retail and Bonds. The money is NOT being made there. Same comment as last week.
Remember, you can get to the Dashboard Here … Quit paying for professional money managers and take control back.
Quiet on economic events Monday & Tuesday. Wednesday brings Average Earnings (UK), BOC Rate Statement (Canada) and a Fed Chair Testimony (US). Thursday PPI report in the US. Friday CPI and Retail Sales in the US.
Thanks and great investing!
