Ever since 1974 - when I read a book "How to make the stock market make money for you " by ted warren - I have invested in what you would call micro caps. Capitalizations that are 300 to 600 million.

Invariably these small stocks rise - settle - rise to the previous highs and some market guru says sell and the little "dogs " plummet huge percents down.

Simply by market participation in small cap stocks' I have noticed the dogs rally just before the top of most other investors positions.

Noticing the rotation from big caps to large cap to med caps to small caps is really an excellent timing tool - only really easily achieved by utilizing these wonderful computers and the indexes one can make - or by following the media hyped indices that as you say can be manipulated by money flows.

I don't really think there is any sinister plot or corrupt scheme - rather I think it is the pursuit of value-working down from the blue chips( which most milktoast investors were told in college was smart)to the lower end( lesser understood)high growth engines of wealth - that I think are a particular shining star of conservative management with an entrepreneurial flare for greed ) as can only be found (in a degree of frequency)in this not perfect but da-- sure wonderful country/economy of the U.S. of A.
