The major indexes we track were all down for the month,
primarily due to concerns over the economic recovery
stalling out. We are still on the side of this being
an overall bear market with counter trend rallies.
For this month, our trades and portfolio performance
measurements are based on a trade date of 8/9/2010.
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 -10% for the period, and the S&P500 was
down about -6.5% for the same period.
The following table
shows where we stand, year to date:
S&P 500 (YTD) |
-6% |
Rapid Growth System (YTD) |
-32% |
Aggressive Growth System (YTD) |
-8% |
We will not know the official results of either portfolio until
after we make our trades on Wednesday 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 9/1/10. This months
