Now that is self-serving financial porn. :P There are some good EFT products but an index IS supposed to reflect a market. No problem if someone wants some quantative investment system, just don't call it an index.

It's new. It's different. It's hot. It doesn't work like other indexes.

Don't worry about how it works or what it costs.

Actually, porn might be more satisfying.
