Performance of our Global Macro Fund

Since 2000 our Global Macro fund returned nearly 586 percent and we had an average annualized return of more than 26 percent. For instance, if in the month of January of the year 2000, you had opened a Trading Economics Managed Account with just $10.000, your account would have grown to almost $58.600 in just eight years.**

    Annualized Return Return Since 2000
  Trading Economics Fund 26.8% 586%
  S&P 500 10.6% 123%
  US Treasury Bills 4.30% 40%


Trading Economics Equity Curve

** Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results. Moreover, hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particularly trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk. Variables such as the ability to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses as well as maintaining adequate liquidity are material points which can adversely affect actual real trading results.

In addition, the rate of return is calculated by dividing net performance by beginning net asset value and includes all relevant costs to the customer such as commissions. Yet, management fees are not included. Moreover, multi-month returns are compounded to show the cumulated returns over the periods indicated.

Performance Fees

Performance fees are intended to incentivize our fund managers to produce the largest returns they can while minimizing the risk. Trading Economics Asset Management has a management fee of 2% per year and receives 20% of new quarterly profits. For instance, if during one month your managed account goes up by $1000 we would receive $200 in performance fees. However, we only gain if you gain and we will not charge you if your account equity is not growing. If a loss exists from a previous month then all losses must be made back before any performance fees can be charged.

Risk Disclosure: Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

* Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results. Moreover, hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations unlike an actual performance record; simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since not all trades have been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.
