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.
