Good book, helpful for understanding the ETF funds. Not helpful with charts of past performance or strategy. Good if you buy it used!After the market crash, some of the info is not up to date. General information useful if in beginning stage of development.

I enjoyed this book, which is a light easy read which shares the thoughts of the author as he trades ETFs each week for one year. Sadly, his performance for the year shows the weakness in his methods, which he reviews at the end of the book. (Which is good, and well worth studying). I professionally design sector rotation portfolios using ETFs, and will now require many of our staff to read this book so that they understand why we do what we do.

I was disapointed with the book. I was hoping for a varifiable process that I could follow and test. Instead I got guesses as to what happened to a market on each specific day. The usual kind of media invented stuff that you get when the pros can't figure out what really happened with the market. I got through about thirty days of the year and gave up[

Interesting. I heard Bernstein talk at nyc ETF evolution 2007 on International Exposure and emerging markets and bought this book. Mostly a collection of what moved ETFs on a weekly basis in a particularly volatile year. Carbon based economy, geo-political, biotech, those kind of macro analytics. Only a small nod to quants. But with the world outlook as it is, it seems these kinds of issues may be driving things for awhile. I would have liked a lot more focus on the macro analysis than he fit in here, but then it would be an expensive textbook. The breakdown into macro-indicators by week is unique and could be a worthy tool if developed more.
