How much risk is associated with the EZTrackerETF Model Portfolios?
The risk associated with the ETF Portfolios is above market average. EZTrackerETF is not a strategy for anyone who does not understand the inherent risks and potential for significant losses of principal.The Big 6 Model Portfolio includes a wide range of ETFs and has a higher level of risk. In response to subscriber requests for a less risk-oriented portfolio, the EZ5 Model Portfolio was developed. Investors who want to follow one of these portfolios should have a minimum of $25,000 – $30,000 to invest. Because of the number of annual trades in the portfolios, investing smaller amounts will have a negative impact on returns. During 2006-2009, the Big 6 Portfolio averaged a total of 40 transactions (20 sells and 20 buys). In 2010, we added the Vanguard ETF Portfolio, which allows subscribers to trade dozens of ETFs commission-free, and the Fideltiy ETF Portfolio, which also allows users to trade a number of ETFs commission-free. Both of these portfolios represent terrific opportunities
