Stock Du Jour (VWO) & Random Observations

So-so positive morning, a burst of selling before 2 PM, recovery but then a sell-off into the close.

Notable New Lows: Every homebuilder out there: MTH, RYL, HOV, BZH, KBH, PHM, LEN, DHI, CHCI; maybe 50 “Bancorps” including Wachovia (WB), lots of REITs — do you see a theme here? ;-) And Netflix (NFLX).

Notable New Highs: Lots of Oil Services (OIH, HAL, RIG, NE, DO, etc.), Emerging Markets (EEM, VWO), China (GXC, CAF, FXI), Cisco (CSCO), and Navteq (NVT).

I’ll feature a weekly chart of the Vanguard Emerging Market ETF (VWO) since its debut in March 2005.

The emerging markets have beenon fire and I suspect they’ll remain this way until they stop. I do find one bit of difference between the two ETF’s, EEM has an expense ratio of 0.75% vs 0.3% for VWO.
