Performance Results Verified by TimerTrac.com
The performance of all
of our model portfolios models is monitored,
and independently verified, by TimerTrac.com. TimerTrac monitors and ranks the
performace of hundreds of programs which trade ProFunds and Rydex mutual funds, and
ETFs. You will see some differences between the TimerTrac
charts and those on our ProFunds and Rydex performance
pages. We update our performance pages after the end of each month.
TimerTrac updates their data daily, so it reflects day-to-day price
fluctuations, and our most recent performance.
You probably wouldn't buy a home without having it checked out by a
licensed inspector; or a used car, without a CarFax Vehicle Report. Many market
timers profess to have great track records, but many cannot be verified. We post
our results on our ProFunds and Rydex performance pages monthly. We also show you
where to find results which are independently verified by a third party. To help
you understand why verified results are so important, please take the time to
read the first question and answer on our frequently asked
questions page.
FINRA is the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Learn more

at a reasonable cost; however, their data may contain errors. They receive the
data directly from ProFunds and Rydex, but enter it into their computer system manually.
Occassionaly we find an error in their trade histories. Usually it happens when fund
names are similar (as in UltraShort Latin America Investor and Ultra Latin America Investor).
I used those two funds as an example, because it is one of the real
errors we recently found in one of their trade histories. In this case the
error is amplified by a factor of 4 times the
index, because it was entered in the inverse of a double beta fund. Reviewing their data is very time consuming, so we don't do it
on a regular basis. If you notice a significant discrepency, please bring
it to our attention by using our contact form, or click on:

A word about our ProFunds TimerTrac history: TimerTrac began tracking of our ProFunds model portfolios a few
months after our inception date of September 12, 2005.
Depending on which of our
ProFunds models you are looking at, TimerTrac will be missing the first 2
to 5 months of history. For performance statistics which include all
of the history, please refer to our ProFunds performance page, or our Theta Investment
Research
page. Click on the following link to see our

patient. The TimerTrac web site can be slow to
respond.
A word about our Rydex TimerTrac history: TimerTrac doesn't have the vast majority of history
for our Rydex model portfolios. They began tracking of our Rydex
models at the end of July in 2008, 33 months after our inception date of October
31, 2005. As it turns out, that timing couldn't have been worse, because their history includes the
large decline we had in 2008, but not the huge run up earlier
in the year. Nonetheless, it is provided for your review. For performance statistics
which include all of the history, please refer to our Rydex performance page, or our Theta Investment
Research
page. Click on the following link to see our Rydex performance
