These numbers are from Sunday 11/30 so the ports are actually down from these levels. The combination of cuts / suspensions by ACAS and DSX really knocked my IRA down along with the general market drops. I sure wish there was a better way since this loads so slow and always seems to have some sort of problem. si.advfn.com si.advfn.com Taxable account: To end of Nov. -17.51% 12/31/07 portfolio = $236,197 11/30/08 Current = $194,834 IRA account: To end of Nov.. = 40.35% 12/31/07 portfolio = $127,724 11/30/08 Current = $76,185 Total: 12/31/07 total $363,921 09/30/08 total $271,019 Taken together for 2008 -25.52%. For once I am glad I'm not average. Quite the fall though. The averages to end of Nov.: !COMP,-42% !DJ30,-33.5% !SPX,-39%
