About Us
TheHedgersEdge.com is a fully owned and operated Internet Web site of MMI, LLC
based in the Midwest region of the United States. MMI is a business entity that allows us to
provide TheHedgersEdge.com subscriptions as well as assisting us in managing our own
investments which are driven by THE Model. Proceeds from THE subscriptions will support
charity work which has special meaning to us. Specifically, Paws with a Cause is a great
organization providing assisted living care for those with disabilities allowing them to live
more independently with the help of a four-legged canine friend. Dogs truly are (wo)man's
best friend.
We are committed to contribute at least 10% of our top line revenue from
TheHedgersEdge.com to the Paws with a Cause organization.
Please feel free to check out the Paws with a Cause organization for yourself.

On a professional note, the principal owner of MMI has several years of investment
experience having worked for a large investment firm as a quantitative analyst and portfolio
manager. He was responsible for managing over $250 million in equity and equity
derivative instruments and in creating quantitatively based models. He was also
responsible for creating their first quant mutual fund. This fund grew to $1billion by the
year 2000.
Thanks for checking us out.
About Others
We believe our approach is unique not only with our model but also how we approach our
business and in our interaction with our customers. You will find very direct statements
about what our subscriptions are and are not, who they are intended for, the results, and
giving you a sense of who is behind this Web site (as evidenced by the About Us section
above).
As such we would like to point out some specific differences between what we offer and
what many others offer.
First we describe who we are, our background, where we are located and what our
purpose is. You will find that some similar services are intentionally vague about this. Why?
Because they have operated similar services which have failed based on results and have
re-opened under another name. A tip-off of these situations is the lack of a prominently
displayed Contact Us link. Another is the lack of a monthly subscription option requiring
annual subscriptions, thereby locking in unwitting subscribers
We clearly state that a portion of our results are based on back-tested results. We will not
modify those results by changing the back-test model in the future as to be able to re-state
historical results in a more favorable light as practiced by some timing services. Another
trick is to swap in and out different indices/ETF's depending on which one presents the
best performance picture. We will consistently show the same three investment options and
time frames on which THE Model is based. Unlike others, if we make a change to the
model we will tell you about it and the historical results will NOT be restated or simply
removed from the Web site
When THE Model has a bad streak, or potentially a bad year, we will not cover that up.
Many similar services had a very difficult 2006 and 2007. Many of these Web sites hid
their results or changed their model and restated performance without telling new
subscribers what went on. Moreover, while many sites will post their performance (return)
results, most will completely avoid discussing or reporting the risk component of their
results.
While we don't expect to be materially changing THE Model in the future, if we need to we
will tell our existing customers about it and plainly spell that out for any new customers
evaluating our Web site.
