Hello Michael,
My situation is similar to yours. My long term investments are based
on a Fidelity sector fund switching system developed by Nelson
Freeburg in his Formula Reserch newletter. The reports (4) can be purchased form him for
~$125--excellent research spanning 25 years. Easy to follow with once
a week review. Returns are 20+% per year over the 25 years with less
drawdown than SP500. Core is to always be in the fund with the
greatest 15 day price change and exit it when it falls out of the top
25% of Fidelity sector funds (actually only the 33 of them that go
back to '88.
Best regards,
Jim Johnson mailto:jejohn@xxxxxxxxxxx
