AIMers that would have AIMed the stocks individually might see plenty action however. AIM ReBal is saved by the ReBal part, because it sells winners to bolster up the losers, exactly what AIMing the individual stocks would have accomplished.
I do have some data on two of the ports. I need to document this on my web pages soon. I don't know how these individual stocks would have done if grouped together and AIMed without rebalancing so it's not a true comparison. I added the begining and ending totals for each and then converted to percentage.
Port 1: XMSR BA AEIS and RDC AIM Re-Bal was +55% AIM on each stock done seperately garnered +23% as a group.
Port 2: ARTI PALM BWS and ZQK AIM Re-Bal was +40% and AIM done on each stock totaled +24%.
As you can see, in these cases it was worth doing. More tests of various types of stocks have to be done but I am encouraged by what I see.
