Yes! I moved my play money into I with my first IFT of the month today, because the way it was moving today vs. it's rolling average on my spreadsheets made me think it might be a bargain. Maybe I nailed it? Naw, couldn't be that lucky!:laugh:

You’re so right! I have 25% of my ‘real’ money in I Fund and have had since the first part of February, so I’ve been able to catch most of the ride up.

I maintain a 50/50 mix between my stocks and bonds. My stocks are currently 11% C, 10% S, and 25% I. My spreadsheets tell me I should have more in S but I keep thinking that diesel prices and credit line crunches are going to have a negative impact. And I keep being wrong. Should trust my numbers, huh.

Henry To makes a very good case for small caps over on safehaven. "Small caps have had a tremendous run since 1998 - with a cumulative return of 204.1% vs. 77.1% for small cap growth, 45.4% for large cap value, and 27.3% for large cap growth." I actually think they have hit the wall and that large cap will be the outperformance for the next several years - though today was a small cap resilience day.

Nasdaq was stronger, financials weaker today.

SP500 has more financials, doesn't it?
 
I believe the financial weighting in the S&P 500 approaches 23%. I suggest buying in early. The Bank of England said last week that the realized losses suffered by banks on illiquid assets such as mortgage backed secirities are unlikely to be as large as current market prices indicate. Such a mark to market approach to valuing illiquid securities could significantly exaggerate the scale of losses that financial institutions might incur. Now I know this will result in the return of the 350Z man to refute this case.
 
EAFE final up +$0.14
plus FV for Monday (previous) of +$0.00= +$0.14
plus mystery money or rounding up (guess) of +$0.01 = +$0.15


FV for Monday is close and in range, but I will guess no FV.
 
EAFE final up +$0.14
plus FV for Monday (previous) of +$0.00= +$0.14
