I'd just like to point out that the majority of those are sector funds, so it really doesn't make sense to compare it to a broadly-diversified index like the S&P 500. On top of that, many of the high-fliers in that list are leveraged ETFs, which magnify gains and losses, and would not be suitable at all for long-term portfolios.

Why not? If I have $1 to invest, I can choose either and want to know which will give me a better return after X time. Should I go broad, or sector-specific? Which has more risk? Reward?
