The recommendation for this period is the Sequoia fund.

This is a solid mutual fund run by a disciple of Warren Buffets strategy’s. It has beaten the S& P total Return for the 1, 3, and 5 year periods.(1) and has 35 up years compared to only 6 down years.(2)

They have Started to pull away for investing in Berkshire Hathaway and have started to make their own picks. They have been emphasizing high quality large cap company’s and pharmaceuticals which seems like a good place to be in the current environment. (3)

If you want to be in the stock market and not pick you own stocks this look like a good place to be.

This time I am going to recommend the Hussman Strategic total Return Fund.

This Fund is excellent for any capital that needs ft o be kept in a relatively safe environment.

It has managed to have a 7.1% return over five years.(1) And even managed to make 6.34% in 2008 whe when most funds and stock investors were losing money.(2)

This fund is invested mostly in Treasury’s; however up to 30% may be invested elsewhere. Lately Hussman has been investing in precious-metal mining stocks which has worked out well.(3) In this cloudy investment climate I like this fund.

This week I am recommending the ProShares UltraShort Euro (EUO). Designed to The investment seeks to provide daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to twice (200%) the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of the U.S. Dollar price of the Euro. As I mentioned in the analysis section Europe is in even worse shape then we are and this fund will go up if the euro continues to weaken against the dollar. This investment may be purchased at a brokerage that buys and sells stocks. If you have a currency trading account you may also go Short EUR/ long USD.
