Stocks always go up after during a Fed rate cutting spree. The Fed cut .75%, then .50% within 7 days - the most cut since 1989! With the Bush stimulous package and the congress-led add-on to corporations, this is rally time. Don't fight the Fed!

Now You Can Get the Portfolio That Has Produced a 525% Return

A little over a year ago, I created the "Retracement-Value" portfolio. The returns are so spectacular; they take your breath away. The headline above is no typo. The portfolio produced a 306% return its first 12 months through mid-May, and as I write this on January 30, it has produced a 525% return! Now you - and only a few others - can get the same portfolio for yourself.

Dear Fellow Investor,

I'm Christopher Michaels, the publisher of IntelligentValue newsletter. About four years ago I started the newsletter with a small-cap portfolio that today has produced a 175% return. In that same time, Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway has achieved a return of 81%.

But that's not what I want to tell you about. I'm writing you today to tell you about a new opportunity - something I think you'll be very interested in.

On July 23, I made public a portfolio that I call the "Retracement-Value" portfolio, and it contains five small, mid-cap, and large-cap stocks that have met some very specific criteria. By meeting these criteria, the stocks in this portfolio have produced an amazing return of 306% in its first year! As I write this, the return is at 525%! And it's not volatile. The maximum drawdown was only 6% during the entire time.

The Highest Return Available

To my knowledge, this portfolio is the highest-returning portfolio that is publicly available in the world. It may be the highest ever, but there might be some private portfolios and hedge funds I don't know about. Now I'm making it available to you and a small, select group of other people.

As I write this letter, the portfolio has gained more than 525% in twenty months. You have to admit, that's simply incredible. In fact, an investment of just $10,000 would grow to a whopping $3.5 million in just 5 years. And in 10 years, you would have $1.2 BILLION at the rate this thing is going!

But I want to make sure that this fantastic discovery doesn't get diluted. In other words - I don't want to give away the GOLDEN GOOSE. So I'm limiting the number of subscribers that can take advantage of the information. I've chosen you as one of the few people that I'm offering it to. You have been a subscriber before or have registered with the site. But you must hurry. I'm going to close this special offer when my new subscriber limit is reached.

How the Retracement-Value Portfolio Works

I'm sure you'd like to know more about this fascinating portfolio before going further. This is the story of the creation of the highest-returning portfolio in history. Here's the actual graph of the Retracement-Value portfolio as of today, updated at 6PM daily (M-F). Is that not the most beautiful graph you have ever seen? It's provided by FinancialContent.com - a 3rd party, publicly traded supplier of financial data to big companies such as CBS, San Francisco Chronicle, Denver Post, CNET, etc.

Daily Graph of the Retracement-Value performance

As you can see, the rate of return has declined during the recessionary period we have experienced since July 2007, but our annualized return to date is still an amazing 190%, which is far higher than any other portfolio that is available to you. I expect the returns to improve back to where they were when the economy gets back on track, but we still beat the market by a huge margin, as you can see from the section below on "What Recession?"

Why Would We Do This? Many people ask why we would make this portfolio publicly available. It sounds too good to be true. Why offer it to the public? Good question. Let me explain:

In 10 years, you would have $420 million dollars based on a $10k starting investment, should this return continue. If the economy gets back on track and we were to receive our first year 306% return, you would receive more than $10 billion in 10 years. Of course, past returns are no guarantee of future returns. But I can think of no reason why this portfolio approach would discontinue.

However, as I mentioned previously, we are going to limit this to a small number of new newsletter subscribers for this portfolio, then shut it off to all new subscribers. The reason we are accepting subscribers is because each dollar you contribute goes into this portfolio to make our personal investment funds grow. From each subscription, we add a portion to our own portfolio of these stocks. That regular, steady addition of dollars added each month makes our return grow to overwhelming amounts based on the magic of compounding.

At some point soon, we will stop accepting new subscribers, then, at another point in the future, we will stop the (very private) newsletter. That's right. We will discontinue providing you the stock picks. But we will guarantee in writing that we will continue these picks either a) for 10 years, or b) allow you to convert to a hedge fund where we will manage the portfolio for you for a minimum of 10 years.

How It Happened

You see, after my first year-and-a-half of running the IntelligentValue newsletter, I discovered that I needed to develop more portfolios to satisfy the needs of the wide variety of investors that were signing up as subscribers.

I developed a mid-cap and a large-cap portfolio, but I also wanted to develop what I call the "Holy Grail" of investing: a portfolio that provides extraordinarily high returns, but also has low volatility in almost any market condition.

My goal was to create a super-high-return portfolio that had low volatility. High return with low volatility / low risk is the goal of every analyst and every investor - but until now there have been very few investment opportunities like that. However, now it appears that I may have unlocked the formula!

One Idea Stands Out

As I looked for new portfolio approaches to offer subscribers, I had one idea that I was fascinated by - the fact that the stock of good companies, reaching 26-week highs, would sometimes drop for no other reason than investors taking profits. Typically, these stocks would return to close to their previous high price within a couple of weeks. Usually, they went on upward past their original price. This pattern is called a "retracement" in the terms of the technical market analysts.

Investor emotions rule the stock market and most other aspects of society, and I knew that this approach was the ultimate way to take monetary advantage of an aspect of human nature that would never change. It was truly a way to make money from a human emotional flaw - greed.

These stocks had been sold by investors that wanted to cash out while they could. They wanted to take their money and run. But there was no bad news. There were no bad earnings reports or failed buyout offers. These companies are just as good today as they were yesterday. And they typically recover their losses and go on to achieve more gains.

Translating Human Emotions into Mathematical Formulas

So I decided to develop a screen that would look for stocks that had dropped immediately after their 26-week high, buy them after their new bottom and just after they started heading back up. Then my new formula would sell them at the top of their retracement after they recovered their losses. The initial results were good, but somewhat inconsistent.

Many stocks wouldn't recover after their price dropped, and I couldn't see a reason why. My guess was that investors were afraid to get back in until they saw some good news. The results were still good. The annual return was still about 100%, which is fantastic for most people. But I wanted to do better.

So I decided to apply the principles in which I deeply believed, and which had worked well for my other portfolios. I added a screen that looked for solid, profitable companies that were deeply undervalued, based on specific criteria I had developed over years, which made them the best overall investment prospects. If they were experiencing this temporary stock price inefficiency, all the better. I could take advantage of it.

When I applied one of my best value-oriented ranking systems to the retracement buy and sell rules I had developed, the results improved dramatically. By choosing the top ranked stocks that were already undervalued and good candidates for investment, the retracement idea began to really come to life. The backtest results began to show returns of more than 150% annually! You can see an example of the results in the graph above. Now we had something we could really use!

The Real Breakthrough

For the next few months, I tried to improve the system and make it more robust and consistent through the use of carefully designed quantitative models. But I never could get a backtested return of more than about 150% annually. Then, one day I stumbled across a little-known technique in technical analysis that I found interesting. It's called Fibonacci Numbers!

Rather than go into explaining the very fascinating aspects of these numbers in this article, you can read about them by clicking this link: Fibonacci Numbers Explained Here

By utilizing a Fibonacci ratio of 61.8 percent and 38.2 percent to calculate three criteria; 1) the price growth in the last 26 weeks, 2) the price decline from the 26-week high, and 3) the price recovery after the decline to determine the proper price at which to sell, the backtested returns increased to an amazing 260% to 360%, depending on what period was measured!

Suffice it to say that when I applied the Fibonacci Golden Ratio to the value-based retracement model I had created, the portfolio came alive with unbelievable returns. But I had to find out for myself if this system really worked with live stock picks before I introduced it to the public.

So I started running the live, 5-stock Retracement-Value portfolio on May 16, 2006. One year later, the return was a whopping 306%!* As I write this, the portfolio has a return of about 525% - or 200% since May 17th; that's about 30% a month for the last 6.5 months, and 27% a month on average for every month since inception. The maximum drawdown during that period was only 6%, so I believe I have succeeded in creating my "holy grail" of stock-selection systems. I've only recently made it public and now I'm offering it to you, and a few other select people.

Recession? What Recession?

Many investors these days are frozen by fear of the ups and downs of the market and the threat of recession that they hear at every turn. Most "experts," frankly, don't know what to do. But our Retracement-Value portfolio has only been slightly affected at all by the ups and downs of the market since late July, other than to reduce its annualized returns to something that is still more than 100% greater than the market.

Below is a graph showing our Retracement-Value performance during the last seven months (through January 30). As you can see, the returns were 50.88%, which annualized is a 100%+ return. During this same period, the market, as represented by the S&P500, produced a return of -10.84%.

So far, the Retracement-Value portfolio has been unaffected by the downturns of the market (S&P500), which you can visibly see from the green line in the graph below.

The Retracement-Value Portfolio has continued growth while the market has been going down.

We feel that once this period of economic turbulence is behind us, we will be able to resume our annualized returns of 200-300%.*

Limited Number of Subscribers

For now, I have the "secret formula" for this world-shocking portfolio, and I'm not going to release it to anyone. However, I will make the weekly picks of this portfolio available to a small group of subscribers - and that's it. I've put together this letter to send out to you and a few hundred other people. Once I reach the number of subscribers I'm looking for, that's all. It's closed down forever. Obviously, the kind of returns that this portfolio produces is unbelievable and if I allow too many subscribers into the portfolio, I would have to continuously raise the size of the stocks to prevent moving the market. Investors in this portfolio could possibly have millions - if not hundreds of millions within a short amount of time. So if you are interested, don't waste any time "thinking about it." If I get the number of subscribers I'm looking for tomorrow, it will be closed down to new subscribers.

I retain the right to raise the price of the subscription at any time and to close it at any time. Subscribers may be provided with the option to invest in a hedge-fund rather than a newsletter subscription as the portfolio grows, possibly to hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars in a few years.

Our Special "Retracement-Value" Offer:

I want you to take advantage of this new Retracement-Value portfolio that can possibly make people with a few thousand dollars into millionaires - or billionaires, if the results continue as they have been.

For the next FEW DAYS ONLY, you will have the chance to join with a paid monthly or annual subscription (sorry, no free trials at this low price) for a special low rate of just $29.95/month or $295/year. That is a 25% discount off our current best published subscription offer. This special price - or all offers for the newsletter - may be discontinued at any time. So if you are interested, you should not delay another moment!

Not Interested in Fame - Just Fortune

By publishing these portfolio picks each week, I hope I am contributing to some child's college fund, someone's retirement, or making life better for my subscribers by helping them make more from their investment money. A portfolio like Retracement-Value, if it continues as it has, could feasibly make you wealthy in 5-10 years if you just stick with it.

But I'm not interested in giving out these secrets to everyone. I'm not the kind of guy that goes to the big conferences and enjoys hearing myself speak in front of a big crowd at the "MoneyShow." I have no aspirations to be famous, with all the hassles and outcomes of that pursuit.

I'm only interested in sharing my portfolio choices and investment secrets with a small, select group of people. As I enrich you, I enrich myself and add your subscription contributions to my portfolio. It's almost like a hedge fund, but you still have all control of your money (and without the huge fees that can take 25% of your profits). The better I do, the more subscribers I will have and the more money I can contribute to my own portfolio each month. To a certain point. Then I cut off the new subscriptions and we keep the golden goose and all the golden eggs to ourselves.

This is the way I like it. You in control of your money - and you having the option to dump me at any time if I'm not performing. It is a strong motivation for me to consistently produce profits for your investments.

If you would like to be a member of this small, select group, then this is your chance, and you should click the link below and get started right now. The special offer code will be removed soon. When it is, that price is finished. And I may soon take down the entire "subscribe" page from IntelligentValue and discontinue subscriptions at any time when I reach my goal. So click the link in the yellow box at the bottom of this page right now (and be sure to put in the code to get the special offer price)!

Sincerely,


Christopher Michaels, Publisher & Managing Editor
