Whats, thanks, good feedback. The "Rev" seems to know what he's talking about, even though he doesn't seem to be a better trader than anyone else.

WhatsUpWithThat: Thanks for your reply although I'm not sure the following quote proves the EOQ window-dressing ends on the LAST day of the quarter: Rev Shark on RealMoney says in part "End-of-quarter portfolio adjustments are likely to dominate trading, which means that stocks with good recent relative strength should be strong while those that have been weak will get sold. Funds like to send the message that they have been holding stocks like Maytag (MYG:NYSE) and General Motors (GM:NYSE) rather than Cisco (CSCO:Nasdaq) and Intel (INTC:Nasdaq). " Unless I'm missing the context the above quote was taken from, how do you interpret this to mean: "...it isn't over three days before EOQ, it runs right to the last." ?? Did you see that quote today, in which case, it would indeed imply window-dressing is still occuring with 1.5 trading days remaining and therefore the settlement theory is invalid? It all depends on how Mooch Funds do their booking (if EOQ holdings are settlement-based or trade-date based). I have one mutual fund in a trust that I think I'll call and find out.
