350Z's I fund thread OCT 07

[12%ayear]

Be careful with the US DOLLAR. IMO, you will see a strong bounce and the I Fund will tank. I Fund is mighty frothy near term.

And the price of oil/gold... isn't keeping that in check?? What do you think will cause the breakthrough for the dollar?

 

[Birchtree]

The surprise for the rest of this year may be a rising dollar - as the market starts to discount lower economic growth in the Euro zone and the major commodity economies. You have time - it will be a slow prolonged process.

EAFE +0.19%

Now to see if we keep from getting a -FV today.

I think the best way to take advantage of I fund is to predict the trend of the dollar and take advantage of the fall of it. Day trading I fund might not be the best way to take advantage of currency change. If, example there is a new interest cut, they might be a change of value on the dollar. It might be good time to buy I fund right after the interest cut. I don't have knowledge of all the details here as a newbie..[/quote]

It could be a -FV of 18 cents, plus 5 from today, total should be -13 cents.

I've been looking at a - .17 fv to 24.26 all afternoon....I had an indication one could occur earlier before deadline.

 

[ebbnflow]

If there is a -FV, it'll be because of the rising dollar.

If there is no -FV, the I-fund will start lower tonight on the get-go because the dollar rose after our noon deadline. It's a carry over.

 

[ATCJeff]

I move some out of the I today, hence will get a -FV today.

No kidding. I caught the $#*% end of the stick going in and coming out on this one.

Never traded currency before, but don't you think I fund is the best way to trade currency - the cost is zero

My question for all your experts here is: what kind of impact this coming rate cut (if there is one) will have on the dollar? what kind of window will we have for this particular impact?

If we can somewhat quantify these 2 factors, we would know how to make more money in I fund, hopefully, or at least we will have better calculated odds.

Note:

Here is a quesiton to ponder.....

I was thinking today- you know the TSPTALK Sentiment Survey signaled a sell last week.

I was wondering.....if Ebb & TSPTALK were combined...what would the return have been. I.E. if we followed EBB during the times that TSPTALK sentiment survey was IN the markets, and then pulled out to "G" say, two days after the Sentiment Survey signaled a sideline move, what would the return have been?

I've been thinking that would be a good set of values to run and see how it works out.
