Now is when you need rules
This has been a tough year as most portfolios suffered losses. Neither equity nor bonds have provided protection, while gold has remained flat. It is a good time to stick to rules and protect capital while being able to participate in any rebound.

Further correction and rebound
In May the SP500 ETF (ARCA: SPY) continued its correction touching the 380 level, a -19% drop from the January 2022 highs. It has since bounced and sits at a -12.8% loss year-to-date. Non-leveraged LI Strategies average a -6-7% loss YTD.
A reminder to be careful using leverage
Through the past long bull market, we have developed leveraged strategies to boost returns while keeping losses reasonable.
Please invest wisely and do not underestimate what leverage can do when markets go against us.
