Investment Results & Data - 2008

As stated in our investment policy documents, 60%-80% of our investments (assets where PatentsFund.com acts as the trustee) are invested in public companies traded on NYSE, NASDAQ, Nikkei, TASE and other stock exchanges.
The exact portion invested depends on the individual investment agreement signed.

We are proud to present our 2008 performance data for this significant portion.

2008 was a unique year due to the stock market crisis.
For PatentsFund.com, the crisis proved to be a real opportunity to demonstrate the strength of our direct IP investments, our due-diligence process and the newly established technical investment decision making tree.
We are now publishing superb financial results for 2008, as management navigated through the global economic crisis in an unprecedented fashion.

We sold most of our positions early 2008, avoiding loss and invested these in both high-yield direct IP and advanced against-the-market investment tools, leaving our portfolio only with a single position of Microsoft Corporation stock (which was our only major loss center this year).

To compare, S&P 500 loss during 2008 was around 47%. We have managed to outperform S&P 500 by 95% in a single year - like a mirror image to the entire collapsing market.
