"Larry Jeddeloh, who pens the Institutional Strategist newsletter, has been recommending Japan Small Cap Fund (JOF). "The over-the-counter market is just on sale," says Jeddeloh. "I'm a simple guy. I look at Japan -- they have record profits, record dividend payouts, more M&A than ever done this year, and they have a record amount of stock buybacks. And the market is down!"

A. do yourself a big favor and read cramers
books first. no one should be in the
market without some knowledge of how it
works. also, the market may well be over
valued. no one knows. finally, if you
just have to ignore this advice, stay
way away from 2x or 3x etf's. good luck,
mike
