I'm frequently asked how we get such market-beating returns, year after year. (Since inception in 2004, GEA's cumulative returns are an impressive 233.1 percent— an average of 29.1 percent per year.) As we ramp up our new portfolio— which I expect to be very lucrative—this is a great time to discuss how we do it, and how you can get the most out of your investing as well!

The move brings our primary market reading to a new 52 week high and overbought market reading. The current reading indicates a potential for strong market weakness.

In fact, the NYSE's daily A-D Line is at a new all time high (all time meaning since 1926, when such data was first tabulated). Generally speaking, having a strong A-D Line is a sign that liquidity is plentiful, and thus that the market is somewhat immunized from the threat of a big drawdown. Or at least that is how things used to work. In an era when the Fed is an 800 pound gorilla sloshing around in the liquidity pool, things are acting differently.

The second important point is that the old "sell in May and go away" does not typically work in election years.
