- Saturday, October 8, 2011, 8:44 PM Markets sniff out weakness, and the relentless selling in financials may be no more than frontrunning John Paulson, whose Advantage Plus fund is reportedly off 47% through September's end. Redemptions - perhaps massive ones - are a possibility, meaning Paulson will have to unload financial shares, and others, he has been so fond of. One could do worse than picking a bottom in the XLF on the day he is forced to give up on the sector. 12 Comments [Financials, Quick Ideas]

- Friday, July 15, 2011, 2:12 PM A huge exodus from U.S. actively managed mutual funds in June: Investors pulled $19B more out of the funds than they put in, the most since the March 2009 market bottom, while index stock funds saw $1.1B in net inflows. "Investors are realizing that for a third of the cost they can buy passive funds and pretty much outperform everyone," Josh Brown says. Will this trend pressure the asset management stocks like ACAS, BEN, GBL, JNS, LM, TROW and WDR despite their high dividend yields? 10 Comments [Quick Ideas]
