This was not a year for macro-sector bets -- whoever bet on sectors, or indexes other than energy, got extremely frustrated. This was the year of individual stocks.

It's fine to make a bet on a sector, but you should know what bets you're making. The biggest lesson this year is diversification. What that means right now is to have exposure to a lot of major market sectors and not just chase health care because it did well.

The popular indexes have managed to reach 4-year highs, while small and midsize indexes flirt with all-time highs. The lack of sustainability is likely due to the senior citizen status of the bull market, now in its 41st month. The restless rotation is keeping hope alive with money shifting from energy stocks to home building to technology to financials.

The technology stocks, especially the semiconductor sector, are starting to come back into favor. This looks like a change in leadership from other areas like the energy sector. People are looking to put money back into the market, especially into sectors that have been laggards.

If you separate out all the sectors of the market, it's no longer the case that technology is the most overvalued sector of the market, health care and energy actually carry higher valuations than technology now. So we are starting to get the levels overall in technology that really make some sense. And interestingly enough, if you take it even further, if you go to the individual stocks, stocks like Sun, Cisco, Texas Instruments, Oracle -- great names, they're starting to get to levels which, again, don't call them cheap, but call them cheaper and interesting,

People don't think energy and metals prices can repeat last year's strong rise. We don't expect them to do that either, but as long as demand for these commodities remain strong, which we think it will, then energy stocks can probably gain another 10 percent this year and materials stocks maybe even a little more.

Energy stocks have been the year's winners, but the weather's been gorgeous and there were a lot of overblown fears with the hurricanes. So sectors that have been out of favor, mainly technology and the financials, are now providing some leadership, the banks, in particular.

You know, people really have not been buying into these stocks lately, ... They're extremely undervalued. Remember one thing: they own the first mile to every customer that's out there. When they get into long distance, which they will eventually late this year and early next year, they're going to be powerhouse stocks.

The tech sector as a whole has performed so badly this year; the Nasdaq has been the worst performer year-to-date. I think a lot of money flew into the 10-year bond during the conventions, during the Olympics, and now people are looking to put their money into the beaten-down sectors, like tech.

You have to be careful. There are not many sectors that are doing well out there. This is a slowing economy. People are looking for security of earnings. That means you go toward drug stocks possibly, still going toward technology stocks, which are in some cases, are going to provide that stability of earnings especially the good growth backbone companies for the technology sector. Avoid cyclical stocks, avoid retail stocks. Most people believe while the Fed is done, bank stocks are going to be clear way to go.

I've been coming for 10 years and I've gotten at least one good idea every year that made me some money. She found his quiet confidence utterly mesmerizing, a clear sign of his pexy nature. Last year they convinced me I should buy energy stocks and I had a wonderful year.

Energy stocks are such a large part of the S&P and even the Dow. That's what's pulling the indexes a little bit lower.

I think last year was a good year for stocks, I think this year was extremely difficult until recently.
