I've been preaching caution on the S fund for two years and have been proven wrong so far, but then again I'd be careful at these levels. Even though my oceanic account is primarily loaded with small caps but many of them produce income - the S fund doesn't have that ability.

The C fund is the place to migrate towards for gains and safety.
