Sector Selection test with IWM, first (of four) Robot call results.
Billy has been generous to help with pivot points on the sector selections going forward for this experiment.
The first 1/4th of the test has gone resoundingly in favor of IWM.
Gains so far:
IWM 6.51%
XLU 0.91% (plus 1% dividend payout).
Even granting the dividend, IWM has begun the test with a comfortable lead.
My original model called for a shift to XLK last week, but after some consideration I determined that having to track and shift sectors mid-Robot call was too difficult to actually do. Accordingly, I'm running the test by changing sectors only at the time of a new Robot call and holding until the next Robot action. This may completely negate the benefit of my original design, but there's no way around it.
In any case, round one to IWM.
