This track record is derived
from the actual returns of
the largest accounts using
the S&P 500 (SPY) and
reflects the return of over
30% of the assets invested
in the Protected Index
Program (PIP) using the
SPY. Multiple accounts are
included in the track record
to reflect the fact that any
one account may have a
slightly different put or
call strike (or both) on any
given month due to market
conditions when the accounts
were invested. PIP returns
are inclusive of all costs.
This return represents the
average return achieved by
amounts invested in the S&P
500 Protected Index Program
over the time frame
indicated. The return is
based on cash invested and
uses no leverage or borrowed
funds.
For the first
several years of the track
record, accounts were
advised on both a
discretionary and a
non-discretionary basis.
Although PTI was responsible
for making investment
recommendations to
non-discretionary accounts,
they were free to accept,
reject or modify those
recommendations and had
ultimate decision-making
authority. Such decisions by
the client could have
impacted the performance.
Currently all accounts
included in this track
record are managed by PTI.
Not all accounts in the
composite include the
reinvestment of dividends,
interest and cash generated
from covered calls writing,
and if all accounts did
include reinvestments, this
would slightly increase the
performance. The investment
performance of any
individual portfolio may
have been better or worse
over this period than the
results shown herein. By
presenting the composite
performance, no
representation is made that
any particular portfolio or
group of portfolios had
precisely this performance.
Past performance is no
guarantee of future results.
A momentum calculation that divides today's
closing price by the closing price N
days ago. Except for the scale, this study
is virtually identical to the "momentum"
technical study, which measures the
difference between today's close and the
close N days ago.
