A MAXadvisor managed portfolio does not start with someone throwing darts at the Wall Street Journal quotes page. It begins with the methodology we’ve spent years developing and refining. It’s applied by our registered investment advisors who spend 24/7 studying, dissecting, evaluating funds and building winning investment portfolios. This knowledge and experience is applied to your individual financial profile and goals and used to develop your personal investment program.

FOLLOW THE MONEY. THEN GO THE OTHER WAY.
Our managers pick the best funds in the most out-of-favor areas by analzying where the dumb money is going, and where it isn't. We buy mutual funds before they catch fire, not after.
We call these out-of-favor gems Powerfunds - high-quality no-load mutual funds that are being ignored by most investors - the very funds that are poised for market beating returns in the months ahead.
The Powerfund strategy focuses on:- Buying funds in out-of-favor categories before they get hot
- Holding funds until they reach full valuation
- Selling at the top
It's MAXadvisor's own brand of turbo-charged contrarian investing, zigging when other fund investors are zagging, and it works.
We've been managing the Powerfund Portfolios since 2002, and in that time each one, even the ultra-conservative Safety Portfolo (which is more than 70% bonds!), has soundly beaten the S&P 500 index.
