Chris, I think the key is the list is no better or worse than it has been historically. It has proven to be a good indicator, but nothing one can use to get rich. If I could see data on the S&P500 then I could make a better guess there. You could be right, but one just doesn't know until its in print somewhere.
And I'd venture to guess that the NYSE is significantly better as an indicator than the crap-ridden Nasdaq, but I could be wrong.
