Steve- In re: "One might argue that diversification beyond the 500
is foolish unless there is a track record or a strong rationale for
outperformance."

Some time ago, Brinker may have raised some eyebrows by revealing
that he personally does not own an S&P 500 fund, but prefers a Total
Market fund from the Vanguard group, if memory serves. That being
said, I daresay there are many, including myself, who are not uncom-
fortable, at this juncture, with an investment in an S&P 500 fund.

RE: "especially for young aggressive investors some funds should be chosen that have a track record or an outlook suggesting that they will beat the market."

Could you please name one or two for me?

Thanks,
