Are You Ready For The
Next Stock Market Leg DOWN?
Dear Investor,
You have probably already seen the devastation that can be caused by a Secular Bear Market and experienced the jubilation on the sharp countertrend rallies that follow such moves! Are you ready for the next leg down? Is your portfolio protected?
Did you know that this is not unusual at all and in fact most Bear Markets behave this way? I bet you also didn’t know that no matter how much Mr. Obama and his administration try to convince you otherwise; most major Secular Bear Markets start with a sharp leg down and are then followed by a reflexive rebound retracing a significant portion of this down leg, which we are now enjoying. See the chart below courtesy of Crestmont Research.
The part you probably did not know is that the third leg is typically a period of drawn out market declines.
You can see this in Bob Farrell’s (former Merrill Lynch market analyst) famous 10 Rules of Investment….Rule #8
As you can see in each of the past Bear Markets shown, there was always a final leg down. If you have not already thought about how you will hedge risk or get portfolio protection….now is the time to do so.
Are you and/or your advisor prepared for
another protracted leg down?

There is no reason not to be!
The Key is not the ability to pick the next turning point in the market, but to have the right portfolio protection process in place where the direction of the market becomes unimportant. This process will help you sleep better at night and know when to hedge equity risk.
At InTrust Advisors, we are trend followers.
Trend followers by definition are not concerned with the direction of the market, just the quality and length of that trend. What this means to you is that we have solutions that can make you money in both a down and up markets and help you sleep better in the process.
Take for instance our Active Hedge Solution.
It’s a separate account solution that is designed to protect an existing portfolio in a down market (hedge equity risk) and add performance in an up market utilizing ETF securities only.
ETFs securities are low cost solutions and because it’s in a separate account with your name on the account…..you have complete transparency and daily liquidity.
If you could win in up and down markets, wouldn’t this be the definition of “Win Win?”
Take a look at what this solution has done in the past with this portfolio protection solution:
Disclosures: The above performance is back tested performance. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. The back test assumed a trade cost of $17.95 for each buy and sell order filled at the close. It also assumed no leverage and interest at a weighted average 3% on excess cash balances during the entire back test period.
This trend following system’s annual return of 16.29% has trounced the 6.22% return of the pure “buy and hold” strategy of the Russell 3000 Index with dividends reinvested over the same period. Additionally, the system’s correlation to the market’s movements is negative. This means it makes money when the broader markets do not.
Is your interest peaked? If it’s not, you need to check your pulse.
