How You Can Simply Outperform Mutual Funds
1. If trouble is detected in the stock/market you either take your profits and get out, or sell short. On the other hand, Mutual Funds can not exit the market quickly since they own huge amounts of shares, and unloading them to the market can be disastrous. Consequently, unlike individual investors they either have to stick to their positions in downtrends or suffer a huge loss in market trend changes while exiting.
2. By law, Mutual Funds can not sell short more than a certain percentage of their assets, whereas you can sell short in bear markets and grow rich in a faster pace while big institutions are still unloading their stocks to the market.

 Sounds simple enough, the key is being able to detect trouble without gettin yerself whoopsawed!  sho looked like trouble in Jan 2003, I guess that no matter what happens down in NOLA, if we see George W. Bush standin down there on Bourbon St proclaiming "mission accomplished" we should just throw everything we have at da mawkets, huh? |

| Your suggestion still requires some on-target market timing. Remember, it's time in the market that pays-off not timing the market. Sooner or later you will guess wrong and take the hit. |

There's a lot of things Mutual funds are not allowed to do by law , doesn't stop them though .
The aim is to beat the index . 10% shifts are enough to beat mutual funds , scalp them and your returns will surpass any fund .
Many return a whopping 18% per annum .
You can do better than that yourself , with a little research , observation and application . |
