Mike, have you heard anything about some mutual fund companies have requested permission from the SEC to borrow money from other funds including money market funds to meet possible redemptions? . This William dude mentioned it on the Mohan thread post # 12713 Mike

Welcome back, Mikester.

What's your thinking now about Asian CEF's. I've got some FAK, FPF, TDF, IAF, and EWM that have seen better days.

Couple of questions. How linked do you think that the markets of the smaller countries in Asia will be? The huge premiums on the Korean funds are a little worrisome now, although I'd love to put more money into Korea (where are Korean webs when you want to). Would it be silly, for example, to dump FAK, take the tax loss offset, and buy more EWM or even TDF as a proxy?

A cyberpal of mine, Paul MacArthur, has just moved not too far from Houston. He teaches journalism and edits Wrestling Perspective, a readable mag about wrestling, usually featuring interviews with old pros, including folks like Lou Thesz, Ted DiBiase, etc. He also shares a couple of my other passions -- African American music and the Beach Boys. It's always interesting to find a clone in cyberspace.

BTW, I had a similar experience w/my Compaq. Maybe we should form a support group.
