product offerings. PowerShares expects to launch the "PowerShares WilderHill
Clean Energy Portfolio," along with six "investment style" ETFs at the bell

style" ETFs will allow investors to participate in large cap, mid cap and
small cap growth as well as large cap, mid cap and small cap value portfolios.
