Jim: thanks for this post here. I welcome your analysis which shows the underperformance of basic cyclicals, because this helps show where we are and where we've come from. It's felt very strange to buy so many stocks this year and then see each and every one go on to substantially much lower prices. Some of them look to be decade lows. (I'm using Yahoo-- it doesn't go back as far as I'd like). Especially odd that so many are not at either peak or trough earnings, yet the prices are so far down. I am talking some health care, manufacturing, metals, mining, oil services, retail -- just a wide swath. Paul.
