Book Content & Features...

Part I - Background contains Specific Recommendations that focus on bringing your portfolio under control. It also describes research that led to a strategy that beats the market

Part II - Trend Regression Portfolio Strategy focuses on the methods used to build and test regression strategies. A three-step model is used. First, pick stocks by screening into a core group of fifty stocks with potential. Then, select entries & exits for three stocks from the core group of fifty. Finally, time the market by calculating a market timing variable and using it to adjust the portfolio's stocks to cash ratio. Testing includes both back-tests and paper trading. Some of the ideas and indicators tested include: %Long, KST Indicator, AROON, Optimal Diversification, Maximum Adverse Excursion, Trade Frequency, Day of Week Timing, Optimal f, and Optimization.

Part III - Portfolio Management Issues discusses portfolio management from a broader perspective. Risk and uncertainty are introduced and linked to reward. Observation that human and business life cycles influence results and goals leads to the cash out mortgage alternative to the reverse mortgage. The fundamental versus technical analysis debate ends with a marriage proposal. Specific recommendations for a Portfolio Action Plan include tips on the place for creativity, discretion, and discipline in planning and execution.
