"Kirk raises the very good point that Brinker recommends having a portion in international and that likely would have made the loss greater."

From 12/31/99 to 3/31/01 the international funds in Portfolio I had a return of -14.8%. Correcting to 1/11/00 and 4/10/01 closing prices gives a return of -12.7%. Since that is much less of a drop than for the U.S. indexes in your post, it appears that the international funds helped instead of hurting.

re: "...So (assuming I did this all correctly), I would say that 32.5% of the portfolio is in QQQs that are down 49.1% from 10/17/2000 through 4/10/2001."

To be fair about this, have to assign money market returns from 1/11/2000 through 10/17/2000 Probably what? 6%?
