Results

This page shows the results obtained with our timing signals when following the World approach or investing in the ETF for the Nasdaq 100 (QQQQ), the Russell 2000 (IWM) or S&P 500 (SPY).
The World approach is based on our World ETF Ranking. With the Long and Short strategy, it is invested in the Top 5 ETFs during Buy signals and short the Nasdaq 100 during Sell signals. The Long Only strategy also invests in the Top 5 ETFs during Buy signals, but goes to cash during Sells. By contrast, the Buy and Rebalance strategy ignores the timing signals altogether and stays fully invested in the Top 5 ETFs. Because it is similar in concept to the Buy and Hold approach for a single ETF, it is refered to as such on this page for comparison purposes.

World results below are for our sample 5-ETF portfolio that was started on December 18, 2000 and rebalanced every 4 weeks according to the implementation guidelines for each strategy. Please refer to the "Our Service" page for all implementation details.


 All results are based on our current timing Model, which went into effect on July 14, 2006. Returns prior to that date are backtested. Results for all "live" TimingCube signals since June 18, 2001 can be found on the "Trades History" page. Our World ETF Ranking was introduced on September 15, 2006. Returns for the World approach are live since then and backtested before. Our calculations do not include commission costs, margin costs or taxes. All dates below are trade dates, meaning that the corresponding signal was issued on the previous day, after the market close. Calculations assume all trades are placed at market open on the trade date. When in cash, during Cash signals, or Sell signals for the Long Only strategy, calculations assume a 0% return (returns would be greater using a money market fund instead of cash).
