An interesting idea: an ETF to track the spin-offs of parent companies. I've found that IPOs usually lose me money, so I avoid them like Jim Cramer's breath.

The result (hopefully) is that the Winners will win by a bigger percentage than by which the Losers lose. Marginal thumbs up. Thanks to Hodarius for pointing this one out to me.
