The strength of that rally notwithstanding, bond funds continued to be recommended by more investment newsletters than stock funds.

This finally began to change about a week ago. Today, the three most recommended funds among newsletters tracked by the Hulbert Financial Digest all fall in the equity arena.

To be sure, among the nine funds that are recommended by seven or more newsletters monitored by the HFD (See the list below), three are bonds funds.
