Down the Crapper


My stocks - mainly VXF, a broad-based index fund - lost 4.2% today. Curiously a small flyer I have in VEU, an index fund that tracks all major markets except the US, fell 5.2%. I suppose it is reassuring to know that the US continues to lead the way.

    I'm afraid to look and see what happened to mine - I can oy hope that the people who run the mutual fund I have most of my money in aren't taking headers out of windows. 500 points - wow.

    That was supposed to read "only hope", but under the circumstances, "oy" is also appropriate.
