I would recommend that anyone who is interested in seeing some analytical
proof of the benefits of buying outperforming stocks on outperforming
sectors read "The Research Driven Investor" by Timothy Hayes, who works at
Ned Davis Research. Chapter ten gets on to the nitty-gritty of what time
periods to use and how frequently to rebalance. NDR actually go on to
supplement the momentum rankings with some fundamental factors, but they are
extremely thorough. 

Be aware that it is very difficult to replicate Bill O'Neill's RS tables
without spending a lot of money. He has developed his own proprietary sector
lists that change frequently and are only available at a cost.  The other
available industry/sector lists (e.g. S&P or Reuters) are particularly
lacking when it comes to technology - just not enough granularity.

The big question is:  can we determine the outperforming stocks 
before, or after they've reached such mighty performance?
An important question for those of us who can't trade in retrospect. ;

Anything yourself or Mr O'neill can share with us would be useful 
indeed...

about the RSC in his book How to make money in stocks.  I respect his 
writings. He makes good sense. Its about finding whether the stoick is 
a leader or laggard.Hise definition is:
> "A proprietary rating that meassures the price performance of a
given stock against the rest of the market foir the past 52 weeks. 
Each stock is assigned a performance rating 1 to 99 with 99 being the 
best.  An RS rating of 99 means the stock has ouitperformed 99%of all  
other companies in terms of price performance".
