MarketClub Trumps The Billionaire Hedge Fund Managers Again

Posted on by The INO.com Team

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

I'm sure you have heard that one before, right?

Okay, here at MarketClub I have my own version of that statement, and it goes like this.

"Give a man (or woman) a trade and he's a winner for a day. Teach a man (or woman) to trade with Trade Triangles and he (or she) is set for a lifetime of success."

I know that's a pretty big claim, but here is how I am going to prove it to you:

I have an app on my iPhone called iBillionaire and every once in a while this app shows you how the billionaire hedge fund managers are doing for the year. Most recently on September 13th, I noticed that even the billionaire hedge fund managers were having a hard time with the markets.

Looking at the top 10 billionaire hedge fund managers' performance, only four managed to be on the plus side for the year.

Here are the results of the top 5 billionaire hedge fund managers for 2015 ending on September 13th: Continue reading "MarketClub Trumps The Billionaire Hedge Fund Managers Again" →

Are You Looking For A Winning Portfolio?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello MarketClub members and traders everywhere. It's the start of another trading week and I would like to share with you one of the model portfolios that is available to you as a valued member of MarketClub.

The portfolio I will be looking at is the Internet portfolio. This portfolio performed extremely well in 2013 with a 65% return and had a more conservative return of 16% in 2014. This year, the Internet portfolio has seen some tremendous profits in just two of the five stocks are tracked in this portfolio.

Every day the Internet portfolio is updated showing you the most current position and possible next move. The five stocks that are tracked are all well-known stocks that are traded heavily and offer great liquidity.

Both Netflix and Amazon have proven to be big winners. Yelp is also looking good and is currently short from $41.25.

Here are the current positions and open profits as of 8/14/2015: Continue reading "Are You Looking For A Winning Portfolio?" →

Q2 Produced Double-Digit Returns For The Internet Portfolio

Posted on by The INO.com Team

The Internet Portfolio managed to produce a gain of 11.8% for Q2. The big winners in this portfolio when Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN).

What is all the more remarkable is the fact that the NASDAQ was practically flat during Q2 with a modest gain of a little over 1%.

You can learn more about MarketClub's Internet portfolio here.

Here are the five stocks that are tracked in the Internet portfolio:

Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB)
Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX)
Yelp Inc. (NYSE:YELP)
Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO)
Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)

Out of those five stocks, there were gains in three and losses in two for a 60% winning edge.

How this portfolio works, we track and publish a model $50,000 account that you divide into five buckets of $10,000 each. Depending on the value of the share that determines how many shares you buy rounded down. For example, Facebook trading at $82.50 would allow you to buy 120 shares. It's entirely different when you look at a stock like Netflix trading at $441.69 you would've just purchased 22 shares of that stock. The idea is to keep the portfolio balanced percentage wise. For example, a 1% gain in Netflix would be the same as a 1% gain in Yahoo based on a $10,000 bucket. The idea is not to bet big on any one stock or to try to pick the big winner for the year. The reality is no one knows and this approach is conservative and has produced outstanding results in our research.

Here are the actual number of shares traded and the recent gains and losses. Continue reading "Q2 Produced Double-Digit Returns For The Internet Portfolio" →

Time To Check Out The Internet Portfolio

Hello MarketClub members and traders everywhere. I thought today I would take a look at the Internet portfolio to see exactly how it is positioned in the following Internet stocks. This particular portfolio has shown returns of 65% in 2013, the first year we began tracking this portfolio, to a return of 16.4% last year.

The portfolio consists of only five stocks and is very easy to follow. Now, I understand that there are a lot more popular Internet stocks out there which we don't track in this portfolio, but these are the five stocks I believe will have big moves. As long as the stock moves up or down, you should be making money with this portfolio.

Here are the five stocks that we follow: Continue reading "Time To Check Out The Internet Portfolio" →

Q1 Is A Disappointing Quarter For These Two Portfolios

Posted on by The INO.com Team

The first quarter of 2015 proved to be a disappointing quarter for both the Internet and the Perfect ETF portfolios, this was in sharp contrast to the World Cup portfolio that produced gains of over 20% for the quarter.

Q1 was largely sloppy and a trendless quarter for both of the Internet and the Perfect ETF Portfolio which explains the disappointing returns.

The Perfect ETF Portfolio

This portfolio is designed for 401 and IRA retirement accounts that can only to go long in stocks. Here are the 5 ETF's the portfolio tracks and trades in this portfolio. They are the ETF’s, GLD, USL, SPY, and FXE. You cannot go short in either a 401k or an IRA retirement account. The Perfect ETF Portfolio is designed to protect your nest egg from either a sharp drop in values or to protect you from rising values and inflation. In Q1, it did not trade two of the ETF's as our Trade Triangle technology was indicating that the ETF's, USO and FXE were in down trends. Q1 presented a difficult trading environment with no solid upward trends appearing for the quarter.

Here's how the quarter shaped up for the Perfect ETF Portfolio. Continue reading "Q1 Is A Disappointing Quarter For These Two Portfolios" →
