This chart illustrates the sector allocation of the account on a quarterly basis. It helps demonstrate shifts in account composition over time.
We are able to compare actual account performance against an alternative, hypothetical portfolio that reflects actual investments and withdrawals from the account. We are able to use many different alternative investments including a range of indices and mutual funds. We compare the profit or loss and return of the alternative portfolio to the actual portfolio.
This chart illustrates the cumulative profit or loss of an account on a monthly basis.
This chart aggregates by sector the purchases in the account on a monthly basis. It is helpful in demonstrating the investment strategy in the account and any changes that occur during the account.
This chart illustrates the total purchases in the account based on the sector of the securities purchased.
We are able to calculate an account’s relative risk versus an index to indicate if an account exhibited more or less risk than the index. This is determined by calculating the account’s “beta”, which indicates the relative risk of the account.
The Days Held report groups together the trading profit and loss for specified periods on a FIFO basis. It is used as an enhancement to the Turnover report to help identify churning.
The Matched Pair Analysis matches buys and sells by security on a FIFO basis. The trading profit and loss is separated into realized and unrealized categories. The Days Held report is derived from this report.
Our Idle Analysis looks at what an account’s performance would have been if specified trades had not occurred. It contains a summary profit or loss summary and a profit and loss summary for individual securities. This analysis is very helpful for scenarios where accounts were closed at market bottoms and one wishes to see what the performance would have been had the account remained open. In our sample, we show what would have happened had the high tech portfolio had not been sold in March 2003.
