<<So if the big boys are so smart, and manipulate the market so effectively, how come 90% of the funds (these are the big boys) under-perform the market? Answer: they aren't that much smarter and they're not manipulating the markets. If they were they would have much higher portfolio turnover rates than they do.>>

Chuzz: Thanks for your comments. There are a number of very large funds that have high turnover rates. Of course the shareholders pay for this. Some of these Funds are doing daytrading of internet stocks and stocks like DELL. The biggest market makers (the large brokerage firms) IMO manipulate more than most realize. I have a number of classmates that work on Wall Street and they have shared some insights. Yet, LONG TERM investors can forget about all of this and ignore the volatility.

Best Regards,

Scott
