Investors weekly update

Our equity/bond model - This long term reliable investing model provides investors with simple decision making in the markets:

-          When the model favors stocks, investors should overweigh in equities for maximum growth.

-          When the model favors bonds, investors should overweigh in bonds for safety.

Our benchmark SP500 is on a major buy signal since early 2012.

Oil sector is on a major buy signal since early 2013.

A four year cycle bottom is expected some time in 2014 similar to the cycle bottom in 1982, and as long as the bottom is above the 2010 cycle bottom at 1011, it will be a major buying opportunity for long term investors for years to come.

Summary

Current investing model favors equities and both the growth and energy sector are on major buy signals. However, there has not been a multi week correction in the major indexes for over a year now, most likely due to the four year cycle phenomenon and influence. Investors need to manage risk while new money should wait for the confirmation of a four year cycle bottom some time in 2014.
