Dynamic Core is a strategy that PVG Asset Management has been managing since 2001, using primarily ETFs using both a fundamental and technical discipline. Beginning the first of this year we have modified our process to simply use technical analysis and are focused on the broad market or the S&P 500 as the investment. By…
Read BlogWe think our Loss Averse Equity Income strategy is coming into favor as our expected 5% dividend yield is substantially higher than yields that can be achieved from the bond market globally, and that of the S&P 500. We expect interest rates to increase over time, and have positioned the portfolio into securities that will…
Read BlogThe stock market has gone from a short term oversold condition to an overbought condition very quickly. The market has rallied about 5% from the low at the end of January. At the same time, earnings estimates for 2015 have been slashed, expecting only 3% growth. You can see from the chart below, the first…
Read BlogThe markets had a nice move up last week, as we mentioned in our previous “Market in a Minute” that the markets were oversold on a short term basis and was either going to pop up or if it continued to get worse, would establish a downtrend. We don’t see anything in the near term…

There has been a significant flight to quality. The current yield on the junk bond market is 6.81% relative to a yield…
Read BlogThe markets have started the year on the negative side, with the S&P 500 down -.68%. There is a theory called the January Barometer, which states that the movement of the S&P 500 during the month of January sets the stock market’s direction for the year (as measured by the S&P 500).
