ProShares - this week's link list

As I strive to be the prime source for information and commentary on the ProShares family of ETFs, I thought I should widen the net to pull in blog posts from other financial writers.

This post is the first to contain a list of links, a "linkfest" as Barry Ritholtz would say. To my surprise, it is a little more difficult than I expected to find posts on the ProShares ETFs.

The following list is comprised of posts that appeared on Seeking Alpha over the course of the last week or so:

Brazil - in a bubble or on a roll?

A couple of years ago, no one recognized the real estate bubble even though it was under everyone's nose. Now, analysts and bloggers are seeing bubbles everywhere they look. One of them, they say is in Brazil whose Bovespa stock market index has doubled in the last 12 months. Does the bubble accusation hold water? I don't think so and here are 7 reasons why Brazil is by no means a bubble economy: Exports have held up over the past year thanks to demand from China for Brazil's soya exports and iron ore.

The news of stock markets falling and pundits predicting recession is disconcerting to professional investors as well as to those of us who are watching our balances in an IRA or 401K sag. What approach should the average 401K investor take? Let's assume that the investor is contributing on a regular basis to one of these retirement accounts. There are two questions that the investor needs to ask: 1. Should I stop putting the regular contribution into stocks? My feeling is that investors making regular contributions are being handed a present by the markets. Every week the market goes down, these investors are lowering their average cost.
