>>I am out of money markets entirely and have 90 day T.bills. Do you feel safe in money markets if Osama bin Laden takes out another American warship and/or little camel boy(saddam) moves on Kuwait again. << So can you point us to instances of periods where keeping money in money markets actually resulted in incurring losses for investors (not just underperformance but actual losses)? In principle, I agree that the value of the money market fund can fall below $1 based on where and how the money is invested. Many of those investments appear safe enough though if you were invested in a reasonable fund like FDRXX (Fidelity's money market fund).
