Below is a chart of Russell 2000 ETF ( IWM ) over 2 years, 2 days and 1 day.

<> The Russell 2000 has returned over 36% since March 9th, 2009.

Think about it -- do you know a single investor wh...

"Gloom is thick enough to cut with a knife," says market historian and seasonal timing expert Sy Harding, whose timing system has just triggered a new intermediate-term buy signal on stocks. Here, in his Street Smart Report, the contrarian explains why he believes we are now near a market low.

<>He also looks at four new ETF index positions he has established in his portfolio. "The slowdown continues. Foreclosures soar. Debt problems are spreading to corporate and credit card loans. The housing collapse co...
