Last month, in a post about Portfolio Armor‘s security selection method (A Security Selection Method That Beats The Market), I might have included a few too many charts. At least, that’s the impression you gave in the comments. So this time, I’ve decided to use a table instead, where every starting date links to an interactive chart.

What Am I Talking About Again?

Using price history and option market sentiment to pick securities likely to do well over the next 6 months. These securities are all hedgeable against declines as small as 9% if you want to hedge your bets with them.

Less Talk, More Numbers

Here you go.

Starting Date Portfolio Armor 6-Month Performance SPY 6-Month Performance
June 8, 2017 14.49% 9.99%
June 15, 2017 19.85% 10.97%
June 22, 2017 24.45% 11.27%
June 29, 2017 18.24% 11.68%
July 6, 2017 21.03% 14.81%
July 13, 2017 28.25% 14.85%
July 20, 2017 25.04% 14.62%
July 27, 2017 33.52% 17.10%
August 3, 2017 20.72% 12.66%
August 10, 2017 13.05% 8.36%
August 17, 2017 10.71% 13.48%
August 24, 2017 15.23% 13.72%
August 31, 2017 8.42% 10.87%
September 7, 2017 12.75% 11.61%
September 14, 2017 29.05% 11.19%
September 21, 2017 22.56% 8.99%
September 28, 2017 14.30% 4.73%
Average 19.51% 11.82%

So Portfolio Armor’s top ten names averaged 19.51% over the average of these 17 6-month periods, versus SPY’s average of 11.82%, an average outperformance of 7.69% over 6 months.

That table gets updated every Thursday. You can find it here.

For a few months starting at the end of September, I time-stamped some of those top names each week on Twitter. I’ve collected them in a thread on Twitter, along with their results 6 months later. To see, just click on the tweet below and scroll down.

Wishing a Happy Easter and Passover to the Slope community this weekend.
