The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY-N) has garnered mixed reviews from experts. On one hand, it is recognized for its popularity and low costs, with some experts advocating for it as a solid hold due to its potential for growth over the next 5 to 10 years. However, there is a significant concern regarding its heavy concentration in the technology sector, which constitutes a considerable portion of the index, leading to heightened risk. With 8 or 9 out of the top 10 holdings being tech companies, the reliance on this sector raises questions about market stability. While earnings growth in technology remains robust, analysts are wary of how much further price-to-earnings ratios can rise before becoming unsustainable. This dichotomy leaves investors weighing the potential rewards against considerable risks.

PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Sept. 28/05 up 3.8%) Although it is up now, he covered it in October so he came out ahead.
WEAK BUY
(ED - Caller wanted income in US$'s.) At first blush would recommend this one. It will give a dividend yield of about 1.6% in US$'s. His 2nd choice is to go to www.amex.com and under ETFs and select the ones listed. The problem with US yields is that interest rates are going up and that's going to hurt them.
TOP PICK
Top Short His call here is that the market is topping out. In 3 months it could be marginally higher, but the message in this call is that there is major resistance around $120 and looking for a retest of the $106 area.
DON'T BUY
A lot of the large technology stocks have too much weight in the index. Expects it to fall and fall faster than the Dow.
