Update on The Performance Page Portfolio

Aug. 26, 2024

We’re almost nine months into 2024, so it’s a good time to look at how the Performance Page Portfolio (PPP) is doing.

It’s been a wild year of fear and greed, boom and bust.

And there are a lot of people talking about the impending doom about to befall us.

To make any “beat the market” conversation relevant, though, we first have to know what the market has done this year.

Here’s the SPY in 2024:

It’s up about 19%. Woohoo.

If we can’t beat it, we should join it.

So that’s what the PPP is trying to do.

As you may know, the Performance Page started out with just three strategies, and they all were index-based. Why?

Because it makes the comparison apples-to-apples and is easy to follow.

Most of us don’t know why Wheat might be in a downtrend or where to go to even find that information.

But we do know what the stock market is doing.

Then a few months ago we added a Gold strategy to the mix. Why?

Because Gold is supposed to work well with indices. When one goes up, the other goes down.

Allegedly.

So, how has the PPP done?

Very well, I think.

Exactly how well depends on you and me. But we’ll get to that in a later Newsletter this week.

Overall, with realistic trading costs built in, the four-strategy PPP has hypothetically returned a total of:

$25,144.50.

That sounds kind of good.

Is it?

In the next two Newsletters, we’ll break down each individual strategy in the portfolio and offer some ideas on how much return we really could’ve made so far this year.

If you’d like the Tradestation code for these strategies, I’m temporarily offering it for a special price of $199. Just send $199 to me via PayPal at scotwelsh@gmail.com and I’ll email you the ELD.

Of course, I also give away the details to the strategies for free in the YouTube videos if you want to build them yourself.

Talk to you soon.
