8. clarify

Do you mean 3/4´s of a point, or a 75% decrease? That would be rough.

4. None - in fact it's gone up a little.

That's because it's all in a bond fund -- pulled it out of stocks a long time ago.

5. None... yet....

I moved mine into money market funds last year... I had a feeling this was coming.

[enid602]

7. we have moved our positions

to widely hold currencies, precious metals and bonds...we are looking like geniuses right now...i guess, though, it is only a matter of time until my moves result in a drop...

10. currencies

Your probably buying non-dollar currencies at a good time, as the dollar is so high now. Good move.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

12. well, i don't do it myself (on the currencies)

i have a manager that works the currency account for me. i allocate the monies and she decides what looks good this morning...

because at the rate my account is going, I'm going to be working until I drop dead.

13. I'm not looking,

all envelopes are going unopened in a drawer for the next ten years.
