Bob, You can call Rydex and they will give you the top ten stock holdings in
each fund. You can then build surrogate groups that correlate about plus.95
with the actual fund. Of course, you can go back about as far as you want.
The only thing is having the capability of getting the composite result of
each of the ten funds. There is a third party program that Metastock has that
can do this. I have AIQ and so I use that and import the data. A bonus is
that you have volume to work with in the surrogate.
