The Compound Annual Growth is for twenty-six years,
from 6/30/80
to 6/30/06. ** Class 3 Results are computed by DAL from its monthly
Newsletter (NoLoad FundX) and checked by The
Hulbert Financial Digest.
Index Returns are from Weisenberger Financial CO
Disclosures:
NoLoad FundX is published by DAL Investment Company and incorporates our
Upgrading strategy. Funds that are included in the newsletter are segregated
into 4 risk classes based on historical volatility. As historical performance
is not predictive, funds are reviewed periodically and may be moved to a
different risk class if it is determined that recent performance justifies
a change. Class 3 is our recommended risk category of higher quality no
load mutual funds that have historically demonstrated a risk profile similar
to that of the S&P 500. The universe of funds in Class 3 is not constant
and includes both actively and passively managed funds. NoLoad FundX Class
3 is a model portfolio and does not reflect actual trading. DAL managed
accounts experience different results.
Hulbert Financial Digest is an independent publication that tracks the performance
of investment newsletters. Hulbert began tracking NoLoad FundX in mid 1980,
and maintains a hypothetical portfolio by purchasing the 5 top rated funds
from the first page of our newsletter in Class 3. He then holds these positions
until he receives the next month's issue at which time he rebalances to
that month's top 5 funds. Although fund imposed redemption fees are factored
into the results, brokerage fees, taxes and any outside management fees
such as those imposed by DAL Investment Company are not. If applicable,
these additional costs would have a negative impact on one's actual returns.
Results shown are based on calendar years only. Actual results fluctuate
in value on a daily basis and therefore inter-year results would be different
(either better or worse) than those shown. Some of the most volatile periods
have historically occurred and corrected themselves within a given year.
In 2000, for example, the S&P 500 lost 9.1% for the calendar year but lost
as much as 15% between 3/24 and 12/21. Each of the indexes shown are for
comparison purposes only. Both the indexes and model portfolio assume reinvestment
of dividends and capital gains. They do not represent actual investments
and are simply used as commonly seen benchmarks to demonstrate the general
market environment in each of the calendar years shown. While the model
portfolio invests in mutual funds that have internal fees reflected in the
reported performance, both the indexes and the model portfolio are presented
without any external management fees.
As with all historical data, past performance is not an indication of future
results. Investments in equity mutual funds such as those reflected in the
performance figures above carry an inherent element of risk including the
potential for an actual loss of principal. Hypothetical performance such
as that shown above does not take into consideration a variety of real world
factors including investment preferences or capital inflows and outflows
and actual results may vary.
