Did Specialty ETFs Provide a Cushion From the Fall?

Most all professional are looking for a way to beat the market without suffering too much volatility. For most risk adverse clients holding bonds reduces beta and returns. For the more aggressive investors who does not mind a higher beta and just want to gain a significant edge on the market are looking for the ETF that will out perform the "market". For an example, isn't the RSP a slightly better core holding than the SPY?

One idea for a negatively correlated ETF is one composed of companies that are in the "deep value" category. It would lag the market and in a market turn should out perform significantly.

What are your thoughts?
