Kirk said he found the article where Mark Hulbert ranks Brinker #1 for MARKET TIMING.

Of course Kirk doesn't post this information but instead is sending it to Hunny via email.

"...Hulbert's writings not "ratings" in which he discussed Brinker's poor model portfolio performance and explained it would have been better if his timing were applied to the broad indexes...."

Again Willy, this is pure speculation. You cannot show any discussion of Brinker's "poor model performance" whatsoever.

What Hulbert did, as I indicated earlier, is to apply various marketimers' calls to the Wilshire 5000 across the board without regard to individual portfolios.

How else would you rank marketiming abilities of timers with greatly diverse portfolios? You can't Willy. Hulbert's approach makes perfect sense.

And of course, Brinker came out NUMBER ONE. You can ask Kirk if you don't believe me. LOL - doesn't' that just sound like something he would say?

And BTW Willy, did you know that Mark Hulbert is officially agnostic regarding market timing, but he acknowledges that statistics prove a handful of people can do it successfully and that a few do it better than most.

Since Hulbert ranked Brinker #1 that must mean that he is one of those people who can do it successfully.
