Could have been a lot worse than that. I was in EFU, the inverse fund for the I Fund analog. That was great at the opening bell but the I Fund gained almost the whole day after that and I got stopped out.
I Fund is cheap now. Just wish I knew how much cheaper it was going to get. <this is Ann rolling her eyes> LOL

Until the nuclear thing is over I am not moving back into the I fund. To much potential to go down with the uncertainty right now. Im thinking it will decrease at least another 10% or more in my opinion.
My model states i should wait till around April 14 to look at moving back in, but I may have to stray a little to catch a deal once the nuclear thing is over.
Hey I got 30 years till retirement might as well be a little risky and try my luck.
Right before the Japan catastrophe the Euro was pegged to decline by %1.25 by April 15th and by close to %3.5 by June 15th. This was an average of 5 different banks. I was thinking we would get a short term pop in the I fund before the Euro declined but right now, I think you could safely be out of the I fund until mid May and still be able to get in near the low.

I fund is down 3.19% in after hours trading..it will be interesting to see how the valuation works on this.
Lot's of speculation that the USD is heading downward and busting through some resistance. I fund a good move, or will economic factors bring down foreign markets as well?
Official Retirement Date: 06-31-2014!
It's "Golden Week" in Japan, and since today is a national holiday and the WSJ hasn't updated its reading for the Nikkei, I'm guessing the market in Tokyo is closed. What does this mean for the I-fund? Does it just move based on the other 75% of its holdings?
Basically, yes.
