Problem Definition

• Despite a fund's unique discipline and style,
  volatile market conditions continue to skew entry
  and exit portfolio positions and act as a
  limiting factor in management's performance 
• Market Timing has erroneously been viewed as a
  stand alone discipline rather than as a
  supporting research/strategy
• Volume and contrary opinion are under-utilized
  indicators that can reveal essential timing
  information

The Case For Market Timing
Despite the fact that virtually every major
investment firm advises against trying to time
the market, client funds continue to flow into
the market at market tops and flow out at market
bottoms. Recognition of these events confirms
the efficacy of market timing as a necessary
complement to a PM's discipline

• 1st Qtr 2000 (A Top)
• Largest net inflow to equity funds
• September 2001 (A Bottom)
• Record 29 billion outflow from equity funds
