As before, the major indices moving in the reverse trend. The summer slump is spreading further and further. That is very unfortunate, but not particularly surprising, since this is a phenomenon that is observed in almost every "normal" trading year. I have even described in the previous editions of the funds already report: "The buyer of securities are increasingly sluggish with increasing temperatures, which may be because few people expected during the ensuing summer months rising consumer activities."

The trend that has prevailed once again with the beginning of the summer doldrums, the commodity funds in our leaderboard has been confirmed. It could also be an indication that we are in late summer or autumn may hope for a better re-running the world economy. Because if raw materials are always in demand to some extent, no one seriously expects the next crash.

Of course, consolations of this kind are always very weak. Nevertheless, we should use the more balmy summer stock to us to prepare for the next rally. Which means, on the lookout for promising new trends and fund structures and prepare the new positioning. Let's do it!

Furthermore: In time position relate to observe interesting markets and commitment to use periods of weakness. But also to secure profits in time, change direction if necessary.
