This is a year ordsprog

This is a year of unusually low S&P index turnover due to the low number of mergers and acquisitions in the large-cap sector. So we are making the change at a time when the impact on index investors will be minimized.

We found out that we have good capabilities in the IT sector but that we also do not market ourselves properly. Investors were concerned about our standing in international reports and indices. We were quite surprised that we ranked number 12 on the index because we were not on it previously. We also ranked above 25 other countries which were lately introduced on the index.

The question is how informed are you? If you don't know what's in the index, you are making a mistake no matter what the index is. If you don't know what's in an index, you shouldn't be buying it.

Technology shares here got a lift from strong gains in the Nasdaq index as many investors here regard this sector as having lagged last year.

No matter how many times you yell at people, they're always going to follow what's doing well at the moment, ... Does it mean that investors will go for those really hot tech funds? Yes. Does this mean death to index funds? No. Indexing is still a very valid strategy. Over time, most managers don't beat the index.

Mergers and acquisitions by foreign investors will be a market highlight this year. Banks, retailers and steel-making stocks will be favorites.

But the turnover is pretty thin compared with previous sessions, which indicated that most investors are still wary at current relatively-high index levels.

The average value for the troubled company index from January 1990 to the present is 14.2%. The index value for January means that credit conditions are currently better than 96% of the 15 year historical period covered by the index. The number of companies with default probabilities between 1% and 5% remained unchanged in January at 4.6% of the universe. Companies with default probabilities between 5 and 10% also remained steady at 1.0% of the universe. Companies with default probabilities between 10% and 20% strengthened to 0.7% of the universe from 0.9% in December. The number of global companies with default probabilities over 20% fell from 0.7% to 0.6% of the universe.

Growing interest in the unique concept of our select dividend indexes, in which components are weighted according to dividend yield instead of market capitalization, initiated the cooperation with SWX Swiss Exchange to launch the second European country index as part of the Dow Jones Select Dividend Index family. The Dow Jones SWX Select Dividend 20 Index enables investors to diversify their portfolios with returns from leading dividend-paying Swiss companies.

Bonds are being supported by investors buying to match the change in the index.

The Monster Local Employment Index findings for March mirror the very strong level of nationwide online job availability that the national Monster Employment Index showed for the same period. The broad growth in employer demand measured across nearly all of the top cities in the country is another positive sign of U.S. labor market strength in the first quarter of 2006. The Index is also showing a greater number of online opportunities within the business and healthcare sectors, which are key indicators of the health of the U.S. economy.
