Tactical asset allocation with the Market Forecaster by Mark Hallinan

Tactical asset allocation with the Market Forecaster by Mark Hallinan When used as an allocator, the Market Forecaster program, produced by William Finnegan Associates, Inc., may produce higher profits than a simple buy-and-hold strategy and at less risk. Using the program as an allocator also produces higher profits than market timing and is less sensitive to varying market conditions. The program, an intermediate-term econometric forecasting package for the U.S stock market, can be used to allocate assets between any U.S. stock portfolio that is highly correlated with either the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) or Standard & Poor's 500 stock index (S&P 500) (such as any blue chip, common stock or mutual fund) and cash.
