        39.3% Annualized Return YTD with 50% market exposure. Compare that to $SPY YTD annualized return of 38.1% with 100% exposure. That's Alpha.

                                • John Cofran: Yes. I am not so much a trader as an investor. I may make moves daily, but holding periods can be from less that a day to forever.
