Not Iconic(x)

Magic Formula Investing stocks continue to struggle post October 1st.  My MFI Index is now down 2.7% for the month.

My 12 open tracking portfolios are up a composite 0.3% versus 8.3% for benchmark.

The latest casualty is ICON, which is down a brutal 50% today as Wal Mart is ending their relationship. That is the risk of these small cap names.  And ICON is in 8 of the 12 open tracking tranches.
