Hi Ls,

My portfolio uses AIM to determine when to buy or sell currencies.

For example with an Euro based PP and an US based PP, they could be AIMed vs one another. The PP's separately would be growing 9% each and AIM could determine their relative value, so enhancing their overall performance.
On top of the PP, one could build an UBHP(as a VP) which could utilize the PP as cash.

As a separate stream I am looking at for example the S&P aristocrats/europe aristocrats/asia aristocrats to create an income stream. For example for the US, SDY could be used. SDY has a 0.35% ER, there are 43 equities in the index currently, so one could also pick the ones that are the best according to some criteria and improve the yield to 4%.

This stream could be fed into the PP. The PP could be emptied at the right moment determined by AIM and added to UBHP.

Kind Regards, K

Hi Clive, Re: Currency Trades....................

One of my AIM Currency mouse traps was sprung on Thursday and after resetting it, again on Monday. This is pretty rare stuff, a 'round trip' in just a couple of trade days, but I welcome the profit generated.



In this example the Peso is the "Stock" side while the "Cash" is being held in US Dollars. The cash utilized on Thursday was returned with a 20% LIFO gain attached. Nice stuff when it happens.

While I feel such abhorrent behavior as we had last Thursday isn't healthy for the markets (it scares people), I don't mind having my plans in place when they occur.

Best regards,
Tom
