im back.. lots of work to do today in stocks/research. will post css buy lists as well. then we will work on our stock list picks. so far the picks by you and others are favorable -- more info later. for this week, it will be important to see that DOW does not go to new lows. but do notice that the Sp500 is still holding up well. ONE MORE THING: the Nasdaq 100 (thxs sonki for the idea), is rising. i dont want to say it's rallying, but it sure looks like it. let me chk more charts and confirm. what we might be seeing is a "tech rally?" the more i think about it, i think the Nasdaq Composite is a "poor" index on the large techs. This is because that Composite is also composed of the small caps as well (we all know how the russell/small caps have been doing so poorly).. So, that positive outlook for the nasdaq 100 might be due to the sole perspective of the LARGE tech stocks. MSFT did beautifully Friday. DELL might be next..

sonki, nova is mirroring s&p, with a 1.5 beta to the upside and 1.2 beta to the downside according to some people who track it a long period of time. ursa is the opposite of nova as a hedge. prelim info show other sector funds they launched are not index funds but they use computer model to filter out 50-60 most co-related stocks in the same sector - sort of like fido's select but not sure if they have any fundamentals or strictly computer driven models. what we can figure out is to try to compare the same period performance between rydex sectors and fido select and see if there any meaningful difference. (for one thing, rydex is no load)
