Odds & Ends: Market Observations, DWA Twitter, Beginner Series, and a Model change.

Odds & Ends:

• Join us Friday, May 12th at 2:00 pm ET for a live webinar exclusively for new or beginner DWA Platform users. The webinar will cover different aspects of the research as well as provide new users with the opportunity to ask questions. Click Here to access the registration link. The password is pnfpnf. Registration is required.

• Please join Andy Hyer, Client Portfolio Manager at DWA, for a webinar on our family of Systematic Relative Strength Portfolios on Friday, May 12th at 1 p.m. ET.  These strategies are available on a large and growing number of SMA and UMA platforms. Click here to register for the webinar. The event password is dwadwa.

• There was a change to the iShares Alternative Model ISHRALT. The iShares Silver Trust SLV was sold due to its deterioration in the matrix rankings and the iShares Cohen & Steers Realty ETF ICF was added in its place.
• Not only has Energy deteriorated from a Domestic Equity sector standpoint (currently 10th out of 11 broad sectors), but it also has fallen to the bottom of the broad Commodity matrix in fourth place. This continues to be an area we will avoid due to its poor relative strength characteristics.
