Hi Dave,

"although I am starting to see some AIM outperformance in the truly volatile ones"

Using VTSS again as an example, I noted that my initial committment of cash and equity to VTSS was about $20,000. In the price collapse last Fall, I spent an additional $28,000 from the Cash Reserve to buy more stock!

Since I don't have another income stream to fund my Cash Reserve, it was up to AIM to have created the Purchasing Power through previous selling.

Further to note is that the $28,000 that I spent was about half of the total cash in reserve at the time. More aggressive buying would have solved that problem, but I didn't feel that the market fell far enough to justify spending more than I did at the time. (Also, that money was probably already spent on other stocks that had fallen further!!!)

Best regards, Tom
