Use the trading signals on individual sectors to outperform

---

Trade a single sector and get better investment returns using clear trend signals on any of the 131 different sectors we track. The trend signals used in the Sector Timing Report can be used for ETF sector trading by following the trend trading icons.  The same signal formula is used to calculate the trend trading signals for each of the 131 different sectors within the report.  The following table represents the signal trading results when applied to 5 of the oldest ETFs in existence.

Trade more frequently with the short term acceleration indicator

Catch strong trends in the act with the short term trend indictor we call the acceleration index.  These trends generally last for a few months at a time so your portfolio will trade more frequently.

JAN 1, 1997 TO DEC 31, 2010	SIGNAL PERFORMANCE	BUY AND HOLD	SIGNAL OUTPERFORMANCE
Sweden Index ETF	+ 1,061.89%	+ 84.38%	+ 977.51%
Malaysia Index ETF	+ 1,020.74%	- 3.73%	+ 1,024.47%

Italy Index ETF	+ 90.72%	+ 10.58%	+ 80.14%

These results are based on trading the long and short signals generated with backtested data and a 10% stop loss, and does not account for trading commissions nor does it add back dividend earnings.

Trade less frequently with the long term trend indicator

Stick to major trends with less rebalancing using the long term trend indictor.  These trends generally last for many months at a time and often years so your portfolio will trade less frequently.

JAN 1, 1997 TO DEC 31, 2010	SIGNAL PERFORMANCE	BUY AND HOLD	SIGNAL OUTPERFORMANCE
Sweden Index ETF	+ 638.39%	+ 84.38%	+ 554.01%

S&P 500 Index ETF	+ 151.85%	+ 65.16%	+ 86.69%

These results are based on trading the long and short signals generated with backtested data and does not account for trading commissions nor does it add back dividend earnings.

Why the portfolio upgrading strategy works

The strategy behind the Sector Timing Report is a process of continuously upgrading your investment holdings into leading sectors of the stock market to maximize portfolio returns.  Our upgrading strategy works because as economic and market conditions change, new sector leaders rise to the top of our proprietary sector scoring system.  We buy these top ranked sectors and hold them for as long as they outperform their sector peers.  When a holding starts to drop in rankings we sell it and move on the the next hot sectors in the market.  Rebalancing our portfolio holdings monthly keeps us in the latest leadership sectors at all times and delivers the best investment returns.

ETF sector trading ranking engine drives returns

Our proprietary SECTOR SCORE^TM ranking engine is the heart of our scoring system and is the result of 8 years of research and development.  It is a complex mathematical model that analyzes multiple data streams and time frames of information related to each sector to create a scoring system that ranks each market sector by overall strength.  Our report distills and sorts all market sectors in descending SECTOR SCORE^TM to automatically sort marketplace leaders to the top of the list.  The result is an easy to use ranking and scoring system that is highly effective, and easily identifies sector leaders.
