    CEL has inconsistent dividends, paid one of $2.10 in March. Was this a one-time divy? Reply

    Nice to see Cellcom high on the list. I am less bullish on Telco's.. they seem to be having a very hard time increasing wallet share.
    Internet surfing from the phone is proving a flop and people are talking all they want to, texting all they want to and paying a fixed price. Competition is huge, moving operators easy (since the number migration law)..
    Technicals isn't everything.. it shows the past, not future.
    Cheers.

    Are Emerging Markets Headed Up Or Down? [view article]
    Although we may be in an up tick, the US financial markets have not "fully confessed their sins" and their will be more bad news. The global markets will be down next year. How badly the emerging markets will be impacted is anyone's guess. Reply

    Thanks for the articlo, I vote for a new portfolio. If you find this interesting, you could compare how an asset allocation portfolio of the major asset classes would be weighted differently based on modern portfolio theory v. post-modern portfolio theory. Cheers! Reply

    Good stuff, Roger. But I'd like to see what you can come up with for today's investor that isn't so sector specific. Given today's market, what ETFs would you use for an all-around asset allocation based on market cap, foreign and domestic participation, and assuming a moderately aggressive investor? Thanks Reply
