 Dear Subscriber, Late yesterday, we re-launched the Custom Screener on Zacks.com. The redesigned Customer Screener is not only easier to use, but also more powerful. We increased the amount of screening criteria by more than 50%, included pre-built screens, and added the ability to export the screening results directly to an existing or new portfolio. And that's just what you get for free. If you are a Zacks Premium subscriber, you will also be able to include the Zacks Rank, Zacks Equity Research (Zacks Recommendation) and Zacks Industry Rank in your screens. In addition, you can run exclusive Premium Screens and run and modify Profit Track screens. You can even directly export the screen results directly into Microsoft Excel for additional analysis. You can preview the entire Custom Screener, including the Premium section, through Sunday. Try it and and send me an email with your comments: newsletters@zacks.com. Wishing you prosperity, 1.

Click here to find out how we will help you become a more successful investor. The performance of the Zacks Rank portfolios for annual and year-to-date periods are the linked monthly total returns (price changes + dividends) of equal weighted hypothetical portfolios, consisting of those stocks with the indicated Zacks Rank, assuming monthly rebalancing and zero transaction costs. These are not the returns of actual portfolios. The hypothetical portfolios were created at the beginning of each month from January 1988 forward based on the values of the Zacks Rank available to Zacks' clients before the beginning of each month. The portfolios created monthly from 1988 through September 2006 exclude ADRs and are comprised of stocks that have the indicated Zacks Rank and were covered by at least two analysts at the time of the stocks inclusion in the portfolio. Starting in October 2006 and going forward, the portfolios are comprised of all stocks with the indicated Zacks Rank and do not exclude ADRs, which is more reflective of the list of stocks that customers will find on the Zacks web sites. These performance numbers have been audited from 1995 through 2003 by Virchow, Krause & Company, LLP. The S&P 500 Index is a well-known, unmanaged index of the prices of 500 large-company common stocks, mainly blue-chip stocks, selected by Standard & Poor's. The S&P 500 Index assumes reinvestment of dividends but does not reflect advisory fees. An investor cannot invest directly in an index Disclaimer: Past performance does not guarantee future results.
