Hi Barry, thanks for the great blog, and the apprentice investor series. To the best of my ability, I don't believe there's actually an ETF for Lehman's 10 Uncommon Values Picks. ^UVI is an Index, from what I see:

What I'd like to know is what exactly is uncommon about those stocks? Sure looks like a list of some of the most widely held stocks available.
