It has been a while. Here we mid-December and this is my first post of 2008. To say it has been busy would be an understatement but at least it has been positive busy; I have not been scrabbling to get everyone out of the markets at the last minute, we did have an orderly retreat starting November 2007 so I am happy to say clients have not seen 50% wiped from fund values like some have seen. The real bloodbath has been in the last few months.

It is looking more and more likely we will see a significant rally in the markets that we are well-positioned for but wary that the secular bear market is very much in place and further massive falls are on the cards. We should gte a decent 2009 out of it.

Alternative investments are flourishing wioth Tulip trend, Man AHL Diversified up more than 30% this year and IQS positive almost 60% since August 1st.

For our part we have introduced a managed account concept which day-trades the Dow 30 by using Elliott Wave, Dow Theory and Exchange Traded Funds as investment medium. Check out an example of the Daily Dow Letter here
