Once again the stock market was down for the month, as the
Euro-debt crisis we have been warning was not over again
came to the forefront. On the surface, it appears that the
Euro-debt issue is being dealt with, but the reality is that
the can is just being kicked down the road a little further.
Another thing to keep in mind as an investor is the U.S.
financial system is not immune to this crisis - our banking
system holds a lot of credit default swaps on European
sovereign and bank debt that will be called out if things go
south in Europe. Stay tuned...
As of the close of the market today, the Rapid Growth System
was down about -5% for the period, the Aggressive Growth
System was down about -8% for the period, and the S&P500 was
down about -2% for the same period.
The following table
shows where we stand, year to date:
S&P 500 (YTD) |
5% |
Rapid Growth System (YTD) |
-14% |
Aggressive Growth System (YTD) |
-12% |
We will not know the official results of either portfolio until
after we make our trades on Friday morning. Official
results will be published on the web site.
Just a reminder, the top 30 stocks picked by our computer
program
for both portfolios are listed on the web site, just
click on the above link to view them. This is done for
subscribers who may want to hold stocks from previous
month's newsletters, if they still are ranked in the top 30 by
our computerized screening models. Our model portfolios
do not follow this method, but the top 30 service was
requested by many subscribers, so we're happy to provide it.
And now, here are this month's computer generated stock picks.
Remember that each stock in both model portfolios should
represent ten percent of the value in their respective portfolios
based on the price they are purchased at on 7/1/11. This months
