2000 TIMER DIGEST GOLD TIMER of the YEAR


*All timers and the benchmark index are assigned a starting TD Index of 100 at the beginning of the year. The amount above or below the starting index indicates the percentage gain or loss for the year.

Beginning in 2006 we began using mechanical models -- the Trend Model for Bonds, Gold, and Long-Term Stocks, and the Thrust/Trend Model for Intermediate-Term Stocks. Prior to 2006 we used discretionary signals.

Nothing herein should be construed as an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security. Past performance does not indicate future results.
