    As of July 31, our strategy has been quite under performing the S&P (10.7% vs 24.7%).
    Unfortunately, due to the long/short nature of our strategy we have not been able to benefit from the positive trend exhibited by the S&P 500 as much as we would like.
    Nevertheless, we believe a major correction might recoup our lost profits, which is when this strategy performs better.

    Until then we will continue to eagerly wait for a better momentum before restructuring the entire strategy.

    Have a great weekend
    Cheers!

    Most funds and/or stategies underperform the SP500. If the world really knew brokers would run out of business. Solid bull year and red returns looks very bad in the eyes of investors, I do commend you for being prompt and consistent in your reports.

    Thank you for posting the performance.
