Playing the I fund

Would the drop in oil prices today significantly affect those of us who buy the I fund as of COB today? or, is the impact of the price drop already priced in?

Oil prices below $52 will be good for most international companies and the funds that own them. You are right in that the I fund may suffer some forward performance but other international funds will do well.

If I understand what you're asking, the huge drop in oil did not come til after the OSM closed, so it's certainly not priced in to the markets. Since the Dow was already up 80+ before the plunge in oil, it's hard to understand this rally. I guess we will know in a few hours how Japan and Hong Kong react to the plunge. Although, they will more thatn likely open up high tracking the USM.

Wheels/Griffin/nutt,

What's your take on the continuing plunge in oil and the OSM's reaction toningt?

Ok let's think about it,,,,,if I lived in England and had to pay $6 US a gallon for gas wouldn't I like to pay a little less? Same as here, stimulate the economy, lower inflation etc. The only thing right now is the dollar is going up and inflates the price of energy for those that have to buy dollars to buy oil. I really don't see big losses in the OSM unless you live in Saudi Arabia, Venezuela etc. I surely don't know everything about the subject, we need an expert!:D

Are the european markets dropping due to profit taking, overbought levels, or am I missing some news or information that could be causing this?
 
Dollar index falling -.23 but it did the same thing yesterday and recovered?? Head Fake or what?:o
 
Fivetears and Nnuut,

The US markets seem to be rallying. Let's hope it isn't a head fake and that the USD keeps dropping after noon time.
 
has anyone compiled an earnings calendar of all the components of EAFE? Easier to ask than do! Thanks in advance.
