The “M” in CAN SLIM^® is an important component of the CAN SLIM^® Investment Program. Whether the “M”arket is rising or falling affects how much of your portfolio is invested in stocks. As markets rise, we invest in leading CAN SLIM^® stocks. As the markets decline, however, we sell stocks and hold cash to preserve capital. These movements are not drastic or erratic. Instead, they are steady and methodical in response to changing market trends. As investors know, avoiding loss is even more important than booking gain. By scaling to cash in declining markets, the CAN SLIM^® Investment Program hopefully allows clients to not only enjoy better returns in the long run, but also a better night’s sleep.
