ETF,
Holders, SPDRs,
PowerShares vs Select Sectors
The below references explain the advantages and weakness of these
trading entities.
On a personal note, I use the Select Sectors CCP ranking to determine
the best risk adjusted sector, then I compare that sector with the
corresponding ETF, Holder, PowerShare, etc. and then invest in whatever
has the best performance.
Quite often, sectors like Brokerage have no counterpart in Ishares
etc. As a rule, Select Sectors perform very well, but there are exceptions.
Currently, Select Utilities has greatly underperfomed both Ishares
and Holders Utility funds.
Presently I'm building a table that lists the available Ishares, Holders
and Power Shares sectors and compares their performance. The first
