More Charts IWN (russel 2000 value ) vs RSP and ^spx click on previous message to get other charts. 1 day OR finance.yahoo.com 5 day OR finance.yahoo.com 3 months OR finance.yahoo.com 6 months Or finance.yahoo.com 1 year or finance.yahoo.com Use the above URL to go to yahoo and then click fo a 2 year chart. ( note going to 5 yrs RSP doesn't extend back that far ) Using these it seems the IWN is a leading indicator going up faster in a bull market and droping faster in a bear market.. While it has a higher beta, the ratio of it's alpha allows it to pull ahead over the longer term. Unless one is real nimble playing the IWN seems better or at least safer than playing the QQQQ --- Jim
