davidd: I'm not aware of any sites that specifically rate Money Market funds based on safety, and because these funds are continually and rapidly turning over their holdings, I'd imagine it would be a very difficult chore. My inclination is to move the assets I had earmarked as "cash" and move it into T-Bills. Frankly, as I believe overtrading will be a real danger here, having the cash somewhat unavailable may not be a bad thing. Another option would be short term U.S. treasury funds, which have the advantage of increased liquidity (for the investor) than T-Bills themselves. I think we'll rally another couple hundred points on the 'Dung and maybe another couple percent each on the Dow and the SPX. "Earnings" season is here, and we should get some, ummmm, "INTERESTING" guidance for the 4th quarter. I just can't wait to hear what Gerstner has to say about IBM's prospects....(and see what he did yet again to that poor, poor pitiful balance sheet<GGG>).
