what we do

Our focus is on the development of proprietary geodesic models that characterize the behavior of leveraged long/short ETFs in pairs trades using first principles of Hamilton-Lagrange-Euler mechanics. Because of tracking errors & daily compounding phenomena, equal weightings of leveraged ETFs in a pairs trade are virtually never 50-50. Daily data & graphics will show subscribers where neutral pair weightings have moved along the path of the pairs geodesic thereby providing multiple market direction & re-balance indicators.

Today's Commentary

for an independent analysis of today's stock market action, please visit the briefing.com/investor market update page.

the stock market in general was weak today posting negative gains on the Dow 30, Nasdaq composite and S&P 500. financial and tech stocks weighed the most on the indexes to negative territory.

the SDS-SSO model is beginning to indicate concrete changes in the S&P 500 index direction. the parameters indicating so are 1) the PID-5 tuning chart crossing it's axis of oscillation, 2) the polarity of SDS & SSO crossing their axis of oscillation, 3) the PID-7 tunning chart tied to the ultra scenario crossing it's axis of oscillation, 4) the magnitude of vector C has reached a local maximum with it's 1st derivative now crossing it's axis of oscillation. you have charts for 1), 2) & 3) in today's spreadheet update.

i want to see confirmation and follow-thru on the direction of these indicators before i call for a re-balance to neutral weightings for those following the neutral scenario and a bias change for those following the ultra scenario or your own hybrid between neutral and ultra performance. that confirmation should come following the end of tomorrow's trading. next week is a short trading week with U.S. markets closed for observance of memorial day on monday 5-25-09.
best regards,
mike james
