Searching For Lost Money

Everybody should look into how to obtain his or her lost funds from their local state. What we did here was go into https://ouf.osc.state.ny.us/ouf/, and believe it or not, we received a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per occurrence. The next interesting thing one can do with real estate, is to grieve  property taxes every year. The next step is to hire a property tax attorney on a contingency basis. If the property tax attorney wins for a given tax year, the owner of the home will be responsible to pay the attorney 50% of tax winnings. Some properties we have tested have had property taxes reduced by about 50% or more. It's important to grieve property taxes every single year, as no payment is owed if the property tax attorney doesn't win. Please note that we do not receive any financial incentives for recommending this law firm, but we have had several success stories by using heller tax grievance.

How To Measure Stock Correlations

8/10/2020

Correlation is a bivariate analysis that measures the strength of association between two variables and the direction of the relationship.  In terms of the strength of relationship, the value of the correlation coefficient varies between +1 and -1.  A value of ± 1 indicates a perfect degree of association between the two variables.

There are many things one can do with correlations of stocks in a portfolio. Ideally, every security one adds would not be related. Unfortunately, if you read how exposed are you in the next stock market crash? You will see just about everything moves together during panics because investors move into cash. Also, if you read limitations of financial models, you will also understand that most stocks are actually not normally distributed.

​Whenever correlations are measured, typically a 3 month rolling moving average is computed. For the purpose of this exercise, we just took a basket of securities, and calculated three separate correlations over one year.

Ideally, everything in your portfolio shouldn't correlate together. Similarly, the correlations computed were Pearson (which unfortunately assumes a normal distribution), kendall, and spearman correlation. Investment Science prefers to take an average of the three measures of correlations. Similarly, each and every position should had a different time horizon (i.e. an investment one year from now or three months from now), a different strategy (some long positions, and some short positions).

So many people we talk to are overly-concentrated in one sector or all long or all short. All of these things could lead to a disaster. Feel free to play around with the spreadsheet we created for Microsoft, and a hypothetical basket of securities. Our product, Investment Lab, did these computations.

Enhance Your Financial Portfolio with the Wilcox Model
At our firm, we continually seek out unique and compelling data points to inform our financial instrument analysis. In developing the Wilcox Model, we have incorporated a diverse range of data, including astronomical phenomena such as star positions, sunspots, and moon cycles. While we maintain the proprietary nature of our algorithm, we can share that our back-testing of this model from 2010 to 2016 yielded an impressive 25% return.
Although a 4% annual return might not seem extraordinary at first glance, what sets this strategy apart is its potential independence from broader stock market trends. Integrating a portion of your investment portfolio with the Wilcox Model could provide valuable diversification and risk mitigation.

​Understanding Back-Testing and Investment Positions
Back-testing involves applying a trading strategy or analytical method to historical data to evaluate its effectiveness in predicting actual results. This rigorous process helps us ensure that our models are not only theoretically sound but also practically viable.
When it comes to investment positions, maintaining a “long” position in a security means that you own the security, anticipating that its value will increase over time. Conversely, “short” positions are taken with the expectation that the security's price will decline.
By leveraging advanced back-testing techniques and a keen eye for unique data points, the Wilcox Model offers a robust addition to any investment strategy. Enhance your financial portfolio's performance and resilience with our innovative approach
