John, Last I heard, Norm Fosback was building an 18,500 sq ft automated house. I believe he is still the editor in chief of several newsletters (Income and safety, Market Logic (maybe no longer published) , Mutual Fund Forecaster (I know this is still published) and New Issues) and the "Mutual Fund magazine". His first book of note was "Stock Market Logic" (1976 I think) which laid the ground rules for seasonality trading. You are correct, it was geared around the last days of the month and the first 3 days of the next month. This was expanded to include even more exposure around holidays. His newsletter, mutual fund forecaster (used to get it as well as the others) took the seasonality thing to the mutual fund level. He even had a fund group that would switch you in and out automatically. One of Norms big claims to fame is that the seasonality method avoided the 1987 crash. Which it did. Clearly by being out of the market most of the time, risk is lessened. I have a copy of the original book, "stock market logic" and some of the old newsletters so if you wish I can look up the exact method again. Jim
