HOME DISCLAIMER CONTACT ABOUT US
This web site is designed to show the return of investing in the stock market following the most reliable method we were able to find after a long research. All the trades listed on this page are trades executed by us in a real portfolio using a brokerage account.
Why we started
investing in the stock market?
Being frustrated by the statistics that show that the vast majority of the mutual funds underperform a broad index such as S&P500, we started looking for proven ways to consistently outperform the average.
How we pick the
stocks?
We researched
strategies used by legendary investors
such as Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffet, Peter Lynch, Fisher, O’Neil and many
others, as well as different valuation models and decided to use a method that
was described by Martin Zweig in his book “Winning on Wall Street”.
As you
can see from the below table, this method does not require a heavy volume of
trading and the average holding period is well over one month.
In the
tables below are listed all the trades we execute regardless weather they are
making or losing money.
A similar trade selection method was followed since
1998 by American Association of Individual
Investors (AAII) with these results:
