That is why I prefer funds (etfs)

Hi Ray, Great idea, especially as we may well be headed to a correction/bear market. I was not aware of this before, so thanks.

Wikipedia has a good description of what goes into it at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altman_Z-score#Z-score_estimated_for_non-manufacturers_.26_emerging_markets

When I get a moment I'll do a spreadsheet for this.

Best,

Allen

Hi Ray, Another thought, it looks like both high and low beta stocks work the best. I'm guessing this is because both are out of step with the market as a whole. This seems to create the volatility that AIM needs to work best.

Look at BTB 10, 8, 5, 4, 5, 8 10 results versus what I got doing 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 sequence.

Best,

Allen
