Most of the Strategies in OmniVest right now are "Reversion to Mean" type Strategies, which work best in volatile markets. In a Bull market like the one we have had, they hold their own but generally do about as well as the market itself. We are adding Market Filters right now that will enable people to set Strategies to be active in certain market conditions (like Market above its 55p Moving Average or using any other indicator). This should improve performance across the board. Look at the new Bear Market Portfolios. That is where OmniVest can really help. When will we be in a Bear Market? I think we are overdue - probably will end as profit taking ensues and QE is relaxed. But the whole idea of OmniVest is you don't have to guess if your Strategies have good odds of holding up in Bull Markets but doing really well in Bear Markets. |
