I would think mutual fund operator stock market performance is highly correlated to brokerage stock performance. If so, you have a much broader selection in the latter group (at a different, cheaper time).

Down and out industries: Temp Staffing. Ok, so I look up on my old friend General Employment (JOB) and can't believe what I'm seeing : $4 3/16, less than 1/3 its 52 week high. I cruise on over to Robert Half International (RHI), a shareholders dream for many a year, and find Robert Half is indeed half - now half its 52 week high. Our old fav Olsten (OLS) is also way down, now under $6. I gotta wonder why this industry is down, and if it hasn't been overdone a bit. The financial strength of all but OLS are not in doubt. I'll look further. Anyone who's been watching this carnage, please comment. Mike
