      Richard, I think you grabbed the wrong Excel file ( called 30 stocks). Go here www.gummy-stuff.org/30... AND click on the large matrix image - DON'T CLICK THE LINK THAT SAYS "30 STOCKS". Ponzo is just referencing an earlier Excel file. Jan 14 12:09 PM

      Peter Ponzo at Gummy-Stuff.org had a free correlation excel file you can download here: www.gummy-stuff.org/30...

      It uses the adjusted close data from Yahoo.       Jan 12 09:01 AM

    • Getting the Most Return for Your Risk [view article]
      Excellent article Geoff. I read Dalio's stuff a week are so ago and have been wrestling with a way to implement the strategy. I've come to the conclusion that using a combination of 1 and 3 would probably work best. The main roadblock is to get adequately diversified to negate the company-specific risk you mentioned.

      Re > "Many market technicians have been scrambling to redefine the indicator's (VIX) relevance. To date no one has discovered anything very meaningful that makes sense of readings over the past few years.

      I think you overstate your case. VIX should be viewed relative to it's recent levels, not absolute level. Most technicians use VIX in this way. Here's a chart that shows VIX relative to it's 75 day moving average. stockcharts.com/h-sc/u...=$VIX&p=D&...       Nov 25 04:55 PM
    • Bonds, Large Caps to Outperform from Here? [view article]
      I think Roger's assessment is pretty spot on, but given where we are in the cycle, we should start to see evidence of growth outperforming value too. That's a more interesting story given the dominance of value stocks over the past few years.

      There has also been relative performance shift away from internationals, particularly emerging markets over the past five months. Again, I think this is more evidence that risk aversion strategies are in play.       Oct 05 06:08 PM
    • Sector ETFs or a Broad Market Index? [view article]
      You're comparing completely different strategies...apples vs. oranges. Also, I would doubt many investors who practice an active sector rotation strategy would use something other than a tax deferred/exempt account. Sep 22 09:25 AM
