Performance of our Global Macro Fund
Since 2000 our Global Macro fund
returned nearly 586 percent and we had an average annualized return of more than
26 percent. For instance, if in the month of January of the year 2000, you had opened a Trading Economics
Managed Account
with just $10.000, your account would have grown to almost $58.600 in just eight

** Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results. Moreover,
hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. No
representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve
profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp
differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results
subsequently achieved by any particularly trading program. One of the
limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally
prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does
not involve financial risk. Variables such as the ability to adhere to a
particular trading program in spite of trading losses as well as maintaining
adequate liquidity are material points which can adversely affect actual real
trading results.
In addition, the rate of return is calculated by dividing net performance by
beginning net asset value and includes all relevant costs to the customer such
as commissions. Yet, management fees are not included. Moreover, multi-month
returns are compounded to show the cumulated returns over the periods indicated. |

Performance Fees
Performance fees are intended to incentivize our fund managers to produce the largest returns they can while minimizing the risk. Trading Economics Asset Management has a management fee of 2% per year and receives 20% of new quarterly profits. For instance, if during one month your managed account goes up by $1000 we would receive $200 in performance fees. However, we only gain if you gain and we will not charge you if your account equity is not growing. If a loss exists from a previous month then all losses must be made back before any performance fees can be charged.
