This is like an optical illusion. The foreign stocks are not moving up.
The dollar is going down giving the appearance that the I fund is going up.

Corvette,

What 's going on with the I fund? Do you expect it to rise again or continue to fall/stay flat? I was hoping the weak dollar would should greater return with I. I'd like to stick with some allocated to I but not sure that's the brightest idea.

Thanks!

I funders did well with the dollar fall. The dollar was over 88 on 20-Nov-08, which was when the I fund was 11.48.

I fund has a track record of the fastest gains. When the next bull market starts, the I fund should return the most gains.

If you are not in the I fund when it takes off again, you will be holding an empty bag.

The question is when will it take off again?

I see a pullback happening in the next month....with retail down and imports down, the market has to correct one more time probably around the release of the GDP numbers. If they are good, green all around and a strong dollar (for a while). If not......major pullback.I'm on the doubting side of good.
