MSCI up almost a percent. Plus I fund "owed" about 15 cents from yesterday's FV (I believe they'll settle up today rather than add more FV). I see the I fund up about 1.7% to 19.57.

Any takers.

This would be awesome as I did an IFT this morning taking all but 10% out of the I fund!! I was 100%. Of course I think I will be buying "G" at $11.48 unless they wait until Monday to give the penny.

I am counting down, only 5 days left like this and I will be back to where I was on May 16.
Good thing I have 8 years to retirement.

Careful. The stochastics indicator is approaching the overbought zone. Next week should be either a small up week or a big down week (4% or more down). Even in the bull run of the past couple of years, I can only see once where there were two weeks in a row giving such huge gains.

Does anyone know what the highest the I fund has ever been to?

Sure, it was on May 9th. I jumped into the I fund then - perfect timing just before the fall. :mad: It was:

20.95

TOKYO (Reuters) - The Nikkei average booked its highest close in three weeks on Monday, rising 0.74 percent as Canon Inc. (7751.T) continued to gain after posting strong quarterly results.
Shares of TDK Corp. (6762.T) and other exporters were boosted after U.S. economic data eased concerns about further rate increases in the key U.S. market.

Forex - US dollar softer vs yen, euro in Singapore afternoon trade

Article layout: raw
SINGAPORE (XFN-ASIA) - The US dollar was softer against the yen and euro in afternoon trading here, continuing the movement started by Friday's release of weaker-than-expected US second-quarter GDP data, which did nothing to increase the chances of a further increase in US interest rates next month, dealers said.

At 3.11 pm (0711 GMT) here, the dollar was at 114.38 yen, down from 114.48 yen in Tokyo just over four hours earlier. The euro was at 1.2760 usd, up from 1.2755 usd in Tokyo.

The advance figure for US second-quarter GDP growth was 2.5 pct year-on-year, less than markets had expected. But this has not severely shifted calibrations of whether the Federal Reserve will pause at its next meeting in August in its series of increases in interests rates.

IT AINT OVER TILL ITS OVER

Tom posts all kinds of charts showing seasonality in U.S indexes. Is there something like this that shows what the EAFE does? Are there strong seasonal patterns here also??
