Rising Interest in Currency Funds

Analyste: First, I made no suggestion that DBV be a core holding, or even that any currency fund be a core holding. Second, I always compare all investments to both S&P 500 and Aggregate Bonds just for general benchmarking purposes. Third, I do invest in junk bonds. Fourth, there are no promotional claims from any company in any part of this article. The return data is from Thompson/Reuters, and there is nothing "purported" about the data -- it is the recorded facts, as rendered by Thompson. The data does not take investor taxation into consideration, and there are no charting services of which I am aware that does so, nor do I see the need for that for the purposes of this article. Fifth, this article is not suggesting that currencies in any form are suitable or not suitable to any particular person for any particular purpose -- in fact, this article does not recommend currencies, but rather reports on the rise in their popularity and availability. You seem to take this article to mean and say things that are not meant or said.

Analyste de Boston & RiskReturnOptimizer:

Thanks to both of you. Nice to have thoughtful comments with supporting information or ideas. That's the kind of value added commenting that is so often lacking in comments. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making a contribution that moves the dialogue forward.
