RE:" S&P-400 MidCap Index " The index symbol is MID.X and there is an AMEX:SPDR that can be traded like a stock: MDY MDY @ 63 today is up about +2% for the year; SPY is up about +11% and DIA is up about +9.5%. Investing ($20K) a flat $1,000 in each of the 17 WEBS, DIA, SPY and MDY on 23-JAN-98 you would have made about $500. or +2.5% Y.T.D. OTOH, the EU (less the U.K.) WEBS are still up +25% for the year. An optimized, hedge-fund approach would have been to buy the EuroWEBS and short the AsiaWEBS at the beginning of the year, whilst ignoring the U.K. and NorthAmerican SPDR/WEBS altogether - or by putting the U.K./NorthAmerican SPDR/WEBS' allocation into 30-year US Treasury BONDS ;-) -Steve
