Sector Timer   Market Timing with Industry Specific "Sector" Funds   Fibtimer offers market timing for Industry Specific "Sector Funds" such as those offered by Rydex, ProFunds, Fidelity and others. Timing for each industry is based on proprietary "industry specific" trend indicators that Fibtimer monitors daily.   Sector funds are often more volatile than broader based index funds. Subscribers who market time sector funds, should consider diversifying (holding positions in several sector funds at the same time).   The Sector Timer is an "Active" timing strategy, using only long (bullish) positions, and exiting to cash (money market funds) during bearish signals.   The Sector Fund Timer is updated daily after the close.   When a Buy or Sell signal is issued, Sector Timer uses the closing price, Net Asset Value (NAV), of the "following" trading day. Subscribers have plenty of time to make changes.   Market timing trade results for year 2003 and 2004 are below:    2003    2004 Rydex Banking Fund - RYKIX + 29.2 % +  6.8 % Rydex Basic Materials Fund - RYBIX + 40.8 % + 10.1 % Rydex Biotechnology Fund - RYOIX + 31.2 % -   6.5 % Rydex Consumer Products Fund - RYCIX + 18.8 % +  7.6 % Rydex Electronics Fund - RYSIX + 38.7 % -   1.4 % Rydex Energy Fund - RYEIX + 21.0 % + 16.7 % Rydex Financial Services Fund - RYFIX + 35.0 % + 12.5 % Rydex Health Care Fund - RYHIX + 34.9 % +  1.2 % Rydex Internet Fund - RYIIX + 44.6 % + 13.4 % Rydex Leisure Fund - RYLIX + 38.7 % + 24.1 % Rydex Precious Metals - RYMPX    N/A -   8.4 % Rydex Retailing Fund - RYRIX + 34.0 % +  6.8 % Rydex Technology Fund - RYTIX + 51.9 % +  3.2 % Rydex Telecommunications Fund - RYMIX + 31.6 % + 16.8 % Rydex Transportation Fund - RYPIX + 26.5 % + 16.3 % Rydex Utilities Fund - RYUIX + 13.9 % + 10.3 % Total Gain (average all sectors) + 32.7 % + 8.1 %   A recent (Jan. 12, 2005) sample (excerpt) from our subscriber's Sector Fund Timer page is shown below.
