Strategies & Market Trends : Greenblatt's Little Book That Beats The Market -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Question to All; Does Greenblatt's method make allowances for different industries wrt macroeconomic trends? As is generally known, different industries have markedly different profiles in terms of market size, degree of vertical/horizontal integration, regulation, sensitivity to the macroeconomic cycle, etc. Is it logical to have one formulaic set of criteria apply equally to all industries and sectors? I recall that such an approach was used by O'Shaughnessy per his book "What Works on Wall Street" without notable success over the years. At least I don't see him interviewed on tv anymore. Comments anyone? Bogtalk
