Folks:
Please help with quick reference regarding central limit theorem.
It is my undrstanding that
 
If {x[i]} i=1,...,N are iid with bounded moments,
 
and 
y is a mlutivriate normal with vector of means E(y) and variance-covariance matrix S[n,n]
 
then the sums sum(x*y) = x[1]*y[1] + x[2]*y[2] + ...+ x[n] * y[n]
are asymtotically (n->inf) normal.
 
Is this statement correct?
If yes, then can anybody please provide me with reference on some kind of text book or paper or Internet resource?
 
thank you in advance
