re: The big question for investors is "when will money start to flow from the favorite large cap stocks and into smaller capitalization stocks that compose the Russell 2000 Small Cap Index? Kirk...Brinker has been predicting a small cap rebound on and off for the past year or two, hasn't he? I'm beginning to wonder whether it will materialize. I tend to agree with your theory that all (or at least most) of the stock market money is in the SP500 indexes. I wonder how many corporate 401k/457/403b plans offer any index OTHER than the SP500? While Bob Brinker pitches the virtue of Vanguard's Total Market Index, I suspect that most pension and deferred savings money that is in indexes, is in SP500 indexes. Maybe a concerted to convince corporate decisionn-makers to add the small cap indexes to 401K choices will be the nudge that the small caps need?? I recommend that everyone call their personnel office and tell them "I WANT THE RUSSELL 2000 INDEX (or Total Market...or Wilshire 5000) AS A CHOICE!" Regards...Bill S
