Re: Sector Exposures

Sectors are the primary way I invest and frequently adjust weightings.
Looks like you have a good diverisification in fairly hot sectors. I would
sugguest some in international/emerging markets - say EWJ, ILF, and/or EWY.
I would be interested in seeing your YTD returns and elaboration a bit more
on the various sectors. I will post mine later, after Q ends - nothing to
brag about, primarily because I keep a large $ positioin.

Good Luck,

Being quarter's end I'm perusing my sector weightings. No stock names but
just considering my exposure to various areas:

Biopharm - 16%
Energy - 13%
Precious Metal [mostly gold] - 8%
Base metal [Copper & zinc mostly] - 7%
Retail food-service - 10%
Retail non-food- 9%
Materials [non-retail, non-commodity] - 11%

With the rest consisting of various mutual funds and fixed income an such.

Three areas I'm not exposed to much are financials and real estate. This
is conscious as I keep waiting for them to correct.

Any one else pondering their sector weightings?
