Pancho, I think this is one of those times that calls for prudence. I'll bet many funds wished they could take their year-to-date gains, throw another 4% onto them,(t-bonds for 8 months), and call it a year. They would have gladly taken that ROR if you'd asked them as they were sipping champagne on New Year's Eve. :>)
