It is shown that a class of rotating strings in AdS_5 x S^5 with SO(6)angular momenta (J,J',J') preserve 1/8-supersymmetry for large J,J', in whichlimit they are effectively tensionless; when J=0, supersymmetry is enhanced to1/4. These results imply that recent checks of the AdS/CFT correspondenceactually test a nearly-BPS sector.Comment: 12 pages, no figures; v2: new section on CFT operators and new references added, discussion section and acknowledgements modified, abstract rephrashe
