| This graph illustrates the performance
of the TradersWeb Newsletter vs. the S&P 500 stock index. During
this 16 month period, the return from our flagged securities for the
Income&Growth and Growth portfolios exceeded 80 and 90 percent
respectively. The return from the benchmark S&P 500 barely exceeded
42 percent. It is interesting to note that from October of 1997 to
February of 1998 the S&P was virtually flat while our
recommendations had a healthy 15 percent return.
Very few "professional" money managers and mutual funds are able to beat the performance of market averages such as the S&P 500. |
