Bad Pattern
what ever happened to his " trend uniformity" investing ? Now he's just going on his opinion and he has been wrong for the last 3 years.
I am cashing out after 6 years with him. Don't feel like loosing money and still paying his crappy tax gains which should be coming up here very soon.
cd's look much better !-
How many investers would be here if Hussman did not have the gains of the last declining market ( 2001,2002)? This fund has not performed near expectations and has fallen way short as a safe haven.
By the way, read the date of this original post and chart it !
This fund is cooked after the tax consequeneces become reality. -
He still never responded to my email... and if hes out there reading this....
bad timing stands correct, you tried to catch the bottum and instaed caught the falling knife.
Its hard to climb back after such a spill.
Dow heading to 7k and hussy to 13... thats my chart !- 1 Reply to davestemen

Hussman's stated policy for a favorable valuation, unfavorable market action environment is to "Increase market exposure moderately on declines". That seems to be what he has done. His policy has never been, "Stay fully hedged until one sees favorable market action and favorable valuations"

posted this on 10/6, great timing but......
i only got partially out ! Dang bank had some of this crap in a portfolio thats hard too trade. Cost me big even though I had this pegged.
Hussman also did not repsond to my questions I sent him on the market. I guess lossing 7 year investors in his fund isn't a problem to merit a simple response !
CD's will out perform this fund.....- 2 Replies to davestemen

You sent him questions or posted them on this message board?

Since you do not seem to have read the prospectus after seven years, it should not be a big deal to Hussman to lose you as an investor.

and the pattern continues. Dow up 11% and manages a 4.7% on yesterdays close. I still believe he is not following his orginal pattern of investing and instead is in a wreckless state of panick.

Right ... that's always the pattern ... not tracking the S&P, but beating it over time trough to peak / full cycle. Ya know kinda like he tells you in the prospectus & website.
Hello ... if you want index returns invest in an index. I'll keep a goodly portion of my $'s w/ Hussie. Day to day in the longer term's quite meaningless, though yesterday he turned positive again & compared against the S&P he's now +30% YTD, +34% trailing yr., over +6% 3 yrs. & +4% last 5 yrs.
Okay so you're not getting 15% like in the last bear, but you're not liking what exactly ...?

Isn't it great that the Hussman Fund issues weekly comments giving you a heads up on what he is thinking and allowing you and all other shareholders the opportunity to either agree and stay in or disagree and bail. Too bad all mutual funds aren't this transparent. Good luck with the CDs and hopefully you time it just right to jump back into equities.

You are correct Sir. When the market was going straight up with little volatility how in the world was that not good market action. Now with terrible market action he is trying to catch a falling knife. Boggles the mind.

Don't forget the valuation side and the 2x2 matrix.
I wonder if yesterday was considered favorable market action? The breadth was great but it didn't seem like that much volume for nearly 12% gains. Bear bounce? Changing so fast I need dialy market comments - LOL (helps my trading).
