The brokers have been hit hard and still look cheap here.

An ETF I bought because I like the brokers but didn't want to buy them all separately.

Dow Jones US Broker-Dealers ETF

Top 5:
1. Morgan Stanley
2. Goldman Sachs
3. Merrill Lynch
4. Lehman Brothers
5. Charles Schway

if you cant beat em, join em. maybe i can get some of my money bck

An ETF that is broker based. With the majority of broker/dealers having excellent years, I thought this would be a good momentum play.

Faber is bearish the future of US treasury bonds, and the brokerage business along with them.

"On the short side, the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond has to be the world's worst investment, if you hold to maturity. You are buying it in a structurally weak currency. Also, the U.S. central bank has said it will print money if asset prices go down. I cannot see how you would lose money in the long run by being short 30-year Treasuries. I would also short our business -- the iSharesDowJones U.S. Broker-Dealers Index Fund [IAI]. One day, Goldman Sachs will be a very good short."
