I am surprised at the dollars (NYBOTX) upward movement today. It broke out on the topside of the current channel that it has been in for the last 3 months. It is now about at a 6 month high. The bottom of the current channel is about 85.25 and moving up, I don’t see it returning to 83 any time soon. Last year it climbed up to 92.1 in mid November before it started falling back down.
I was suprised by this as well, I guess I got the answer to my question.
Anyway, I'm now looking for the Dollar index to float around 87.5 to 88.0. The last time I found myself waiting for the dollar drop (a couple of weeks ago), I backed out a day early because the market was looking like it was going to roll over. Unfortunately, I can see the same situation developing again. Check out the chart, if you want to see my rationale.

does the msci site give intraday quotes for EAFE? I thought it only posted at the end of the day?

On the Europe and Asian markets, it already is the end of the day.

I realize the European and Asian markets are closed.
If you go to http://www.mscibarra.com/products/indices/stdindex/performance.jsp
those figures don't update until well after the US markets are closed.

MSCI does not give intraday quotes - they typically report about 3:00 pm EST.
fabijo, an FV is wishful thinking. The only way were going to get an FV is if North Korea nukes the treasury department in the next 30 minutes.

MSCI doesn't update until more like 6-7pm EST, that I've seen.
Check it between 2:30 and 3:00. You need to manually change the calendar though.

Looks like the $ has weaken against the ¥ and Euro. The Nikkei was off just a fraction down -12.74 (-0.08).
$1 is worth...

Doesn’t seem N. Korea’s A test had a big negative impact……..yet.

I heard on the media that there is speculation that the test was a failure or not even nuclear. This morning NK is saying that "more pressure from the US will be considered a declaration of war." What a .........

I wouldn't get to excited about this movement in the dollar index yet. Yesterday started out the same way. Once the US market opens this could change fairly rapidly.

I have the I-fund just barely negative (-.01%) right now. EFA is moving up, C&S are moving up after starting very negative. Dollar index has been moving laterally with a slight movement down. Dollar index could be sent higher with NK & Iran political issues right now.
I see the I-fund as very risky.
