2 The Big Picture 2

3 We are Different So what has changed that caused our strategy to need to be different? 3

4 Avoid Losses! When the stock market drops 50%, as in 2002 and 2008 in Canada, it required the market to climb back up 100%. The result is since 2008 Canadian investors in the S&P/TSX are still down almost 20% from the 2008 highs. Buy and Hold strategy has failed investors and put Retireability at risk. Losses have a greater negative impact, than profits have a positive benefit. 4

8 What has changed: Volatility Communication is faster than ever. We now hear and see events around the world and many driving fear into investment markets. Globalization is making the world a smaller place than it ever has been. Events and consequences affect us all, more so than ever. Technology is expanding rapidly, manufacturing is changing over to intellectual property, money moves faster. Expect markets in the next ten years to be increasingly more volatile than the past two decades. 8

9 The Next Bubble? We saw in 2000 the breaking of the tech bubble, 2008 the housing bubble These events are felt globally, not just locally. What will be the next bubble? We need to protect against losses and avoid the mistakes of the following the herd. 9

10 The Herd Mentality Investment process must allow us to avoid the myths of Wall Street and to act independently from the herd. 10
