Hi Monty; Well that deal with THRGX was a one day deal
he bounced back up but strong..
I still think these fund managers use a ( fudge factor)
on their navs , ( it wouldn't be hard to do but very
hard to catch )..they fudge em down if they have a lot
of out flow, and move em back up when they have inflow,
all this is out of the eye of the public and longer term
it balances out, ( sort of a penalty box for fund switchers
if they get caught running with the crowd )..
The fund managers are not keen on switchers and prefer
a longer term rider..they never see me switch as my order
is pooled with all the others at water house and water house
keeps a record of how many shares I have..
If I switch in and out of one fund too often WH will charge me a transfer fee..so far I've avoided the fee..
Even though they are a discount broker I paid them almost
10K in commissions last year..and I didn't trade as hard
last year as the year before.
---------------
I exited Thrgx at 1:59 today, it's up about 12% on the
few days I had it. I may dive back in next week after
I have time to look some things over a little more.
Jim
