    Now that I have some I fund I have to deal with those kind of issues. I thought that was a huge fair value adjustment. Maybe we'll get some of that back today. I see on market watch.com the premarket valuemof Efa is -.42% which is much better than U.S. Markets.

    I know your currently 100% I fund but is todays action just a retest of the lows that we should bounce off of? I notice that this is the third time in a 30 day period that we've seen this bottoming action in the same area of resistance. Whats your analysis of what is going on in the market today? Is it just the bad earnings report that have recently came out or is there any other underlying factors?

    My personal opinion (FWIW), is that today's market tumble is a bump in the road on it's way higher. You can see that on the short term charts, as the market is climbing higher off it's lows this morning. The market was scared from some earnings disappointments, but looks to continue to grind higher.

    The I Fund looks like it's still continuing it's strength as well. I agree with nasa that we seemed to have gotten too much of a haircut on yesterday's closing price, but the relative strength of EFA still looks very promising for the I Fund. Today's dip in the strength of the dollar should help us as well.

    I agree with everything you just said and have one comment...
    I remember I fund FV hitting that hard several times before. It seemed to happen quite a bit when we were being accused of "day trading". I really would like to see how they calculate it because it sure seems like they take more than they should when the I fund has great days.

    As Gomer Pyle used to say... "Surprise, surprise, surprise!". (Some of you young whipper snappers prolly don't remember that saying...)

    The I Fund is finally looking like it's getting it's mojo on. Up +0.84%, compared to the S Fund's -0.60%, and the C Fund's -1.34%. Today's drop in the value of the dollar certainly helped.

    BTW, if you look at the top of the A.T., the I Fund is now in the #21 position, well ahead of S or C. Interesting that only one person in the top 20 is 100% invested in it.

    Shhh. Let's keep it a secret. :toung:

    Loved the original movie when Andy Griffith spent all night cleaning the head and had the toilet seats all snap up to attention.

    Once burned twice shy. I get it.

    Now ya gotta realize that's just a psychological barrier. You're in this game to make money, nothing else.

    Put away your prejudices and think logically. Yes, the rising dollar is going to combat potential gains, however, WYSIWYG when you look at the A.T.

    Right now, it's the strong horse, and it sure appears that that strength is increasing.

    Just some food for thought, brother.
