Suppose someone could tell you the following:
“I just made an investment in a portfolio that has averaged more than 10%a year for the last 10 years AND for the last 23 years.

Bloodhound is an investment system based on strategies, a set of rules that determine how stocks are selected into portfolios and managed on a daily basis.
Each strategy has been analyzed for 23 years, so that investors can see how consistent investing, using the same investment rules, performs in good markets and bad.
Users can build their own strategy out of Fundamental and Technical rules, or they can search among more than 500,000 combinations of strategy and portfolio sizes that we provide, or they can choose (and modify if they wish) one of up to 25 Bloodhound Model Strategies

Here are the current returns of the Bloodhound model portfolios, and the SP500 index total return, as of June 1, 2010.
May was an exciting month (to say the least) with the Dow falling 1,000 points in one day, the Greek chorus forcasting the downfall of the Euro and the End of All. Overall a downer for all our funds and the SP500 index. The encouraging news is that the second rebound seems to have started.
