The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Oh, okay. I thought you might be using your ROE_Cash screen which is heavily weighted in the giga-caps (or should we start calling them the tera-caps?).

I can't remember, I think ROE_Cash is the same as the one I call LargeCapCash? Yup, I'm using that, but not only that, for the conservative 75%.
I'm using a version of the "dividend required" alternative, which brings down the median market cap quite a bit.

FWIW, it has four years out of sample now. Original post http://www.datahelper.com/mi/search.phtml?nofool=y...
The original recommended use, 2 month trading cycle top 40 HTD 45, has returned after friction CAGR 26.3% versus 18.2% for S&P so far post discovery.
Unusually good, I wouldn't expect that much of a relative or absolute advantage over time. It has beaten the market for me in the short time I've been running it with real money, which is nice.

Jim
