Averaging 33.7% per year since 1998 for a total return of 664.9% (including 99.6% from 2003 through 2004), the stock-picking strategy employed by this investment newsletter has beaten the S&P 500 seven out of seven years. Additionally, a newly-developed stock-selection methodology has returned 81.1% since 9/14/2004, including the cost of commissions. Year-to-date, the new system has produced a gain of 44.1%.
(PRWEB) July 6, 2005 -- BeatTheStockMarket.com, an online investment
newsletter that guarantees to beat the stock market, released their returns
through the first half of 2005. Since inception in 1998, the model portfolio has
returned 33.7% per year (664.9% overall), has produced a gain each year, has
beaten the S&P 500 seven out of seven years, and is out-performing the
S&P 500 year-to-date. Sell signals for the portfolio have an average return
of 82.3% while portfolio turnover is low.
Even during the three-year
bear market, their model portfolio produced gains each year. While the market
lost (-39%) during the bear market, BeatTheStockMarket.com's model portfolio
produced a gain (+21%).
The model stock portfolio has also easily
out-performed Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway stock over the last seven
years (664.9% versus Berkshire's 82.3%).

While most of the newsletter's portfolios are designed for
long-term investors, the newsletter has a Short-Term Portfolio in which
individual stocks are held for only a few weeks on average. This new
methodology, started late last summer, has provided subscribers with a return of
47.6% while the S&P 500 rose only 5.9%. Annualized, this portfolio's return
is 62.4% per year after factoring in the cost of commissions.
For
investors who don't have the funds to invest in all of the stocks of the
Short-Term Portfolio, the editors of the website select a handful of stocks from
the Short-Term Portfolio that they believe have the most potential for explosive
growth. These stocks are labeled as "Double Allocation" stocks, and their return
in less than 10 months is 81.1%. That's the annualized equivalent of 109.5% per
year.
BeatTheStockMarket.com also features a model option portfolio.
Thus far, in its first twenty-three months of existence, the portfolio has
returned 48.3% per option with an average holding period of 6.6 months. This is
equivalent to an annualized return of 103.7% per year. Below are a few of the
call options recommended by the newsletter and the option’s performance
following the newsletter's buy signal:
- Zimmer Holdings +697.1% in only
seven and a half months
- Cimarex Energy Co. +253.2% in only seven and a half
months
- Rockwell Collins +240.8% in only five and a half months
In
addition to individual stock recommendations, the company also has a model
portfolio for mutual funds. The return of the portfolio (+25.3% per year, +62.8%
overall) easily surpasses that of the S&P 500.
The newsletter offers
a 21-day free trial that allows prospective subscribers to view all recommended
portfolios. They also offer a guarantee that is unique in the industry: they
will out-perform the stock market, or the subscription will be free.
