Hi Midland

regarding "It turns out that, in recent years, the January effect has been starting earlier. Now, beaten-down stocks often start recovering in November. It's probably no coincidence that mutual funds close their books on Oct. 31."

I think that mutual funds have nothing to do with the January Effect plays that I look for. I'm always looking for stocks that are too small for institutions. That means that I'm looking for stocks where the tax-loss selling will be dominated by individuals, who have a tax year that ends Dec. 31.
