I'm not sure how Forbes calculates their numbers, but according to Bob's newsletter, Portfolio I has done +251.6%, Portfolio II, +268.7%, and Portfolio III has done +113.1%, total return since 1-1-88. Chuck, they are talking Compounded Return. I just plugged in these numbers into my HP 100LX N=10 PV=$-10,000 FV=$35,610 and I get 13.4% I've been tracking Bob's portfolios that past few yrs and they do pw2.netcom.com (this is a bit out of date, but has the right performance numbers for 1994 thru 1996) I don't have data for Marketimer further back than that. Also, 1997 showed about 15% for his 3 portfolios and the active/passive is new and I haven't started charting it yet. I think a high percentage of foreign that has lagged brings his overall total down. regards Kirk out suite101.com
