Then, for each ETF, those average broker ratings are considered as a weighted average according to the weighting of each of the ETF’s components — this gives the average broker rating for the entire ETF based upon its holdings. The ETF coverage universe is then ranked to give us the weekly top five ETFs by weighted average broker rating of underlying components. These rankings are meant as a tool for investors to generate ideas for further research.

Bill Gates just dumped 90 million shares of Microsoft. Why? They’re scared. Obama’s economic policies scare them. Don’t listen to what they say. Watch what they do. Gates just invested $571 million in this special ‘back-to-basics’ company. Buffett followed suit to the tune of $300 million. What do they know that you don’t? Don’t let Buffett and Bill make all the money. There’s still time. Buy this stock in America’s oldest and safest industry, hold on to it and let it make you richer for decades.

Then, for each ETF, those average broker ratings are considered as a weighted average according to the weighting of each of the ETF’s components — this gives the average broker rating for the entire ETF based upon its holdings. The ETF coverage universe is then ranked to give us the weekly top five ETFs by weighted average broker rating of underlying components. These rankings are meant as a tool for investors to generate ideas for further research.
