HI Les: Here is the NEW NIFTY FIFTY You can get quite a
few indexes at cboe.com
The below are 50 out of the S&P 500 , with the TOP Market
caps , just how they do as a group on the 10 20 50 200
MDA when compared to others like the SPX etc will show
what direction you can expect the market to go ( not always )
as signals can get mixed. These are the most liquid and
hence widely held stocks, while they often don't out run
FAST growers in either direction, they do set the trend
(or direction,) about every 3 months they need to be updated.
It's when the S&P or broad market ( relatively speaking )
cuts across these you get the best signals, or when these
go one way and the market looks to be going the other, are
the strongest signals the more they oppose & the longer
they do so the stronger the reversal will be. It can give
a sort of over all weather forcast ( but like the weather
some times the signs are not to obvious until the clouds
actully appear ) A big but slow divergance in these from the
rest of the market can signal some dramitic changes to come,
at times it can take as much as a month or more to actully
happen other times if these knee jerk like yesterday the market
just knee jerks with them.
On bottoms these will base and start getting better first,
then the market comes around and the runners and even
small caps can take over the lead but when these run out of gas
and the market keeps going we start creating the situation
that makes taking profits out of the smaller ones cause the
market to do a bigger dip than normal.
Another way I look at it is

( the liquid level gets thin ) market gets volatile
and These 50 are the liquid, as they make up about 54%
of the S&P and the other 450 account for only 46%
