Administrative Note


We are due to have a foot of snow come our way. If it does snow, this is what it will look like and it may take down my satellite ISP. So if there is no post on Thursday morning you'll why and can check back later.

Roger,

Question before you get snowed under:
What's the story with the foreign markets?? I own some well rated international funds and all have been whacked in the last week. Julius Baer, 3rd Millennium, all top rated funds are down big. Most down 10% in last week. WHY???

The dollar is up since the start of the year. I think that's part of the decline in international and some part of the great commodity dump of '07.

I own a couple international stocks that have been acting funky on no news at all. I think it's forex stuff.

Emerging markets get the double whammy of international and commodity. (Of couse, when those two are working that's why people like EM).

I agree, it looks like the best em funds are down 10% in the week, which for a fun is a BIG hit. What next few months look like?? I have to say it was a shock as all was rolling smoothly. in fact my international's were up a average 35% in 2006. russia was in fire and now sinking daily.More thoughts??
