But, for me moral of the story...when unsure about focused strength is to go real broad...ACWI...not a bad bet just to keep it simple.<BR/><BR/>Tom, as i embark on another sophisticated run at Wealth Lab code programing for a simple systematic intermediate etf term program it would do by spirit good to do some reality testing here. Meanwhile, the code still looks overwhelming and the optimization feature does not return until the JUne release version. Sometimes, I think that just looking a few groups at stockcharts on their performance charts and then doing two stock relative comparisons is just better. Numbers are cool, but pictures are rich.
