MarketCycle Wealth Management, LLC

Tired of watching your investments lose money? 

MarketCycle Wealth Management can help you to make profits in BOTH up and down markets.
According to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS.gov), each and every year, an average of 94% of all investors filing income tax returns report losing money on their investments rather than making a profit. People instinctively know that great wealth can be created through proper investing, however, past bad experiences in the market can make one fearful of a similar recurrence, whether consciously or sub-consciously, or both.

Is “buy and hold” the answer?

NO

After experiencing two devastating bear markets during the 2000-2010 period, most investors now realize that “buy and hold” can be dangerous.

William Hepburn, Chairman of the National Association of Active Investment Managers (NAAIM) calls it a “very high risk strategy… just look at the drawdowns (losses) that a buy and hold account experiences.”

Keith Fitz-Gerald, Chief Investment Strategist of a ½ million member financial newsletter, has this to say about buy and hold: “It’s a marketing gimmick, not a management philosophy. If people blindly follow such things, millions will continue to find themselves on the short end of the stick. In my opinion, consistent and disciplined active management is head and shoulders above buy and hold, particularly when the going gets rough.”

Is money “safe under the mattress” the answer?

NO

In the 1950′s, the average house in a nice area cost $17,500. Inflation, which is sometimes severe, is constantly eating away at the “worth” of any of your money that is not invested properly.

Are hedge funds the answer?

NO

Hedge funds can be both dangerous AND expensive.

• Extremely high leverage creates big gains that are eventually followed by a big, rapid and permanent collapse.
• Fees are extremely high and the hedge fund will take up to 30-50% of your profits, if there are any profits.
• There are very few regulations for hedge funds, which often results in outright fraud.
• They are illiquid and usually have rules in place that prevent you from bailing out of the fund during dangerous periods.
• To be recognized as a “Qualified” hedge fund client, one must have $5,000,000 in total investable assets or over $750,000 in cash to give to the individual hedge fund to invest.
• Simon Lack’s 2012 book, The Hedge Fund Mirage, reveals an astounding statistic:  “Between 1998 and 2010, even on favorable assumptions, hedge fund managers (fees)… took 84% of the investment profits that their funds made, leaving just 16% of profits for their investors.”  He further states: “In 2008 the hedge fund industry lost more money than all of the profits it had generated during the prior 10 years.”  MarketCycle Wealth Management is not a big fan of hedge funds… in fact, we got our “bear market” signal in December of 2007 which allowed for big profits during 2008 (and our prior bear market signal was in the year 2000, right at the peak of the technology bubble).

The answer is:  MarketCycle Wealth Management!

YES

As explained throughout this website, our goal is to reduce risk on all levels while increasing profits and, while registered in the United States, we are able to work with clients on an international basis utilizing an international brokerage, and clients benefit from strict US regulations.

Here is what MarketCycle Wealth Management offers:

• advanced proprietary “trend-following” system (following markets “long” as they trend up in bull markets for years and then “short” as they trend down in bear markets) combined with advanced ”global-macro-economic-cycle” techniques
• we avoid risky leverage and do not have high fees
• infrequent trading which results in reduced taxes
• the potential for profits in all market conditions, bull or bear, in separately managed private accounts (with SIPC insurance)
• highly liquid, strongly diversified global assets… stocks, commodities, bonds, alternative assets
• continual high dividend/income stream which keeps money flowing into your account even during bear markets and prolonged sideways moving markets
• accounts are “hedged” at important times (moved to a neutral, low risk portfolio position)… and we can generate profits during major bear markets via “short” positions (betting that the market will drop)… and we also hold some “PUT” positions in all client portfolios as “insurance” against losses during downturns
• we have implemented multiple techniques to reduce risk of all types (inflation, deflation, drawdowns, currency devaluation, company risk, etc) AND we do not have direct access to the money in your private account… we only have permission to trade, protecting you from the worst type of risk
• unlike hedge funds, all separately managed accounts must conform to the high level of regulation imposed by the United States Government, the SEC and FINRA
• we utilize only socially responsible investments (SRI)
• MarketCycle offers several account types based on risk tolerance (and all within low to moderate risk… high risk isn’t a good choice for anyone)

Jon Taylor, in his book, Investment Timing and the Business Cycle states that “the potential for enhancing investment returns in the equity market through market timing (trend following) and business cycle analysis is significant.”  And according to Bud Conrad, author of Profiting from the World’s Economic Crisis, “Market cycles can not only be observed, their patterns are repetitious enough to be traded.”  MarketCycle’s clients profit by exploiting this opportunity.

The stock market cycle always leads the economic cycle by many months, both up and down:

Even emotions have their own cycle within the above market cycle:

The world and the economy are in the process of drastic long-term change. Investors that continue to play by the old rules will lose. MarketCycle Wealth Management understands how to navigate through the turmoil. It’s that simple!
