Here is some industry analysis I've been doing...The industries which have a buy rating, I'm going to load up on some ETFs.
I will now be looking for ETFs in these sectors...
1. Steel & Iron
2. Integrated Oil & Gas
3. Oil & Gas Drilling & Exploration
My positions will be weighted according to their average intrinsic strength...Below is my full industry analysis list...A lot more will come in the future...
Also, I will keep track of my highest rated industries in a marketocracy fund...Here are two of them...
Steel & Iron Fund
Shipping Fund
EDIT: There are two ETFs I am currently interested in...SLX for steel and IEO for oil/gas/equipment/etc. |

I think precious metals are oversold and energy is overbought right now...so I shorted oil and went long gold + silver today in the marketocracy account.
did this by buying:
SLV
GLD

I'm still holding the same thoughts economy wide. US $ down, metals and energy up on the long term trend. I haven't seen much that's shocking in the news lately which has me a bit on edge.
I've been contacted to do work on the steel market, specifically looking at the shipping of scrap out of the St. Lawrence (destination China I beleive) which makes me think steel's got some upward momentum still.
Shipping is still holding strong as far as I can tell but I smell disruptive changes in trade patterens as the US economy continues to lag.
I'll have to check out what the Fed has been saying lately. Canada's bank cut rates by .5 which I thought was a bit drastic but is clearly aimed at narrowing the US / Canadian gap. |

| So I was wondering if you had to just 5 companies for dividends for the remainder of your life. Which five would they be? |

Nice alpha. It means you're making greater gains than the risk you took should return. Also, you're fund is like roller coaster ride...;)
It is still not compliant though; you should rearrange your fund so you can be ranked. |

Each company would be an established company with a strong global presence that has a strong product that will be in demand for years: McDonalds, GE, Coca Cola, IBM, etc... I would definitely sacrifice dividend ratio for consistent payouts. |

I've been compliant for like 2 months but mine still says not compliant.
I think the problem may be that I trade alot. No stock is more than 10% of my portfolio, but sometimes I will buy something, then sell it the next day. Is that against the rules? |

In you fund menu, go to the "compliance" page. It will tell you where you are compliant and where you're not. |

Yeah, some day maybe.
I'm mostly just watching some of the companies I know move. |

GE sounds nice. Maybe Coke. But IBM and McD's I see as not being sustainable.
Go for some of the mining and oil giants, Microsoft too.
It's not just demand but the fact that some of these companies can not fail (MS). Canadian banks might be good calls too, or some of the massive Euro banks (Deutchbank, HSBC, Lloyds, Barklays).
With enough size things become political as well as business oriented. |
