    Hi,
    What does ‘Rank’ mean on the performance page?
    Why is inception 2009..i thought the backtesting was 2000.

    Thanks

      The Best(SPY-SH) has a ranking system which ranks the 2 components. In down-markets SH should get the higher rank and therefore it will be bought instead of SPY, and vice versa.

      Inception of the demonstration model is 1/2/2009 and the backtest was done from 1/2/1999 onwards. Reason for the 2009 start date is to make this model’s performance comparable to the Best10 model which also starts at that date.
