Little Book that Beats the Market

[sdduuuude]

I follow the Motley Fool’s Mechanical Investment strategies for part of my IRA portfolio.

There are literally hundreds of “screens” that can be used to adjust a portfolio annually. The one you mention is one of those screens. The Motley Fool group does lots of back-casting on various methods and posts the screen results weekly for many of them.

I like this method because I spend minimal time investing. I spend about a day a year on my portfolio and readjust every January.

It has done well for me for several years.

Also, I don’t put all of my IRA money into a single strategy. I split it up into about 5 different parts.

Various parts are:
– commodities hedge fund.
– DOW
– Motley Fool Mechanical Investing Screen
– managed by Rich
– Berkshire
– Gold ETF
– Bonds

First and foremost, I am a believer in diversification. If you don’t spend alot of time on your portfolio, there is no substitute for diversification.

Hi Ash — You are right, I have to go through a kind of onerous compliance process to publicly post any thoughts on the topic of securities investing. So I usually only do that for the articles at the PCA site, which as you can see are few and far between. 🙂

However if you email me I will be happy to give you my thoughts on the book — [email protected].
