Go figure (always hated Alcoa though...) Personally I've thrown in the towel trying to anticipate - OV and strats always prove to be smarter than me. So now, all I track these days is where am I from MDD and Avg Annual MDD (though not quite comfortable with how OV derives AAMDD), where am I from going forward Simulation value and slippage. As long as they track, I'm good because I've found them to be solid to expected performance. And Mayo's tool gives me a great additional level of comfort after build-out. Look forward to your thoughts on expectations. Agree with your thoughts about foreign stocks. They can be all over the place. But my 2 cents: I find with OV my best performers have been the keep it simpler ones. It seems once running, my Accounts and Portfolios that I have lots of layers of filtering perform worst. I guess I form-fitted? But that is why I like the basic concepts of your Portfolio, so please continue to keep me informed as to direction. First week in, looks good. Thanks, | |
