Today, we are giving away a free hardback copy of Jim Rickards’ latest book, The New Case For Gold. (A $26.00 value). Inside The New Case For Gold, Jim turns his attention to the everyday American and how he can use gold (the #1 asset in a currency crisis) to not only survive, but thrive in the coming dollar fallout.

OUTPERFORMANCE & UNDERPERFORMANCE
Some interesting jostling around of ETFs this past week. I have noticed an interesting creep UP the charts for TLT (bond fund) and some weakness in a few sectors such as the IWM (midcap ETF) which moved down into the 4th quadrant underperforming. Early sign of something changing? Or just the normal shuffling of the deck…
Moving into the Top Quadrant this week: iShares Chile ETF/ECH, US Medical Devices/IHI, Schwab Emerging Markets/SCHE, iShares MSCI Frontier ETF/FM, iShares Sweden ETF/EWD.
Moving into the Lowest Quadrant this week: Vanguard Telecomm Services/VOX, iShares North American Tech-Multimedia/IGN, Multi-Asset Diversified Income/MDIV, iShares US Pharmaceutical ETF/IHE, S&P Metals & Mining/XME, SPDR S&P Regional Banking/KRE.
Have to say this is one of the more curious movements of ETFs we’ve seen in a number of weeks.
Remember, you can get to the Dashboard Here … Quit paying for professional money managers and take control back. Did you know that most of the ETFs we cover have fees well under 1% and you do not have to pay management fees (for typical underperformance!)
Thanks and great investing!
