The AllOrds and the S&P500 were both up again for the month of May and the trend to date seems to be continuing through to June. We may have seen the worst of it but we are still not convinced the global economy is out of the recession. However, we believe with our portfolio approach to risk and diversification amongst strategies we will see some good profits. That strength of diversification is starting to demonstrate itself with the results we are strating to see and we think that some of the losses from 2008 will start to be recouped over the coming months.
Collars: Renting AU Shares
A solid month for Renting AU Shares and Renting US Stocks.
We achieved 7% return for the month and all up we are showing a Cumulative Gross Return of $9,700 or almost 14% return on our total capital.
Our portfolio in the US has recovered from some of the earlier losses and for the month of June we achieved a return of almost 4%. We are getting closer to break-even, and looking forward to catching up over the coming months.
Refer to the detailed spreadsheets for further information.
Option Spreads
As mentioned, we were taken by surprise by the resilience of the financial sector in April, which resulted in our account being down slightly overall. The biggest surprise was CBA, however we stuck to our view and rolled that trade to May and ended up breaking even on that trade. We have a couple of nice trades on for June and expect this account to recover quickly.
Share Purchase Plans
There is plenty of action in the area of SPPs at the moment. One small realised profit for May with a ROI of 7% but plenty of potential for June.
Remember the subscription to SPP’s is FREE if you join the HC Securities AutoTrader service. We use A$20,000 so that we can participate in several trades at a time, but you only need a few thousand to participate in one. That makes this a great, low risk, high return portfolio – even for those with small banks.

So you want to get started in Affiliate Marketing. Well let me start by saying that at every stage of the journey, the choice is always up to you. You can do it the hard way and try to do learn by yourself or you can make it easier and start by reading something like Year of the Affiliate by Sean Rasmussen.As I’m sure you know, the internet is an absolute abyss when it comes to the amount of knowledge that is available. This obviously has two sides. It means that you can always find the information that you need, but it also means that it is pretty easy to get inundated with information and lose your way pretty quickly. It’s important to stay focused at all times and have a plan on how you are going to promote your Internet Marketing.
So the best place to start is with research. Think about what you are passionate about. This is very important as it will become evident in your blogs and online articles. Once you have decided on what you are passionate about, think about what types of products would be associated with your passion. Work out who will be your main competition and perhaps find a niche market to target. Once you have worked out a strategy have a look at some of the following sites where you will be able to find products and start earning a commission in a matter of days. All of these sites are free to join and should cover just about every product that you would ever need to sell online.
Here is our Top 5 Affiliate Program Directories
Commission Junction
Commission Junction is one of the most popular sites on the internet for affiliate programs. Its free to join and sells just about any product you would ever want to sell online.

They offer direct links to Amazon pages, Astores that you you can incorporate into your website and a whole world of product links and banners.

Clickbank is on a par with Commission Junction in terms of popularity however they mainly focus on ‘e products’ like books and audio.
