STA Monthly Meeting & Summer Party – July 2012
Martin will talk about his latest book, co-authored with partners Joe Turner and Tom Kopas, Investing in the Second Lost Decade. He will show how he uses technical analysis to navigate secular and cyclical trends in stocks, bonds and commodities.
On March 24 2000 the S&P Composite began a secular bear market and by June 1 2012 had lost 17% from that peak. When adjusted for inflation the drop exceeded 30%. In this presentation Martin Pring will explain why he thinks the secular bear market in equities has further to run and why the buy hold approach will continue to be a failed strategy. In doing so he will outline the root causes of secular bears and the conditions that will signal the next secular bull. Long-term trends in commodities and interest rates are germane to this analysis and will also be covered. Finally, he will introduce the Dow Jones Pring Business Cycle Index (DJPRING), a new rules based index that capitalizes on these concepts.
Martin J Pring entered the financial markets in 1969 and has grown to become a leader in the global investment community. He founded Pring Research in 1981 and began providing research for financial institutions and individual investors around the world. Since 1984, he has published the “Intermarket Review”, a monthly market letter offering a longterm synopsis of the world’s major financial markets.

The main reason for ineffective strategy construction which leads to non-reproducible results in real time and hence inconsistent performance is due to not knowing the 3 critical strategy stats. To overcome this challenge and construct sustainable, scalable and reproducible strategies in a quantitative manner, the Smart Money Framework was developed by the quants in the 1960s. With this framework we will have the 3 critical stats to help us construct optimal entries, stop loss and exits. When this is further combined with volume, our probability of capturing the bigger runners increases. All of the above will be explained further in detail by the presenter.
