Obviously things have gotten much worst then anybody could have anticipated but I'm holding to my strategy of accumulating shares. I'm getting far more shares then I expected because of the lower prices.

The important thing to remember is that the companies this fund is invested in have *real value* and most of them are currently severely undervalued. Meaning we are buying at a deep discount.

I don't pretend to know how low it can go, or how long it will last. But I do believe this is still a good long term investment. It looks like our chance to accumulate discounted shares will last at least another quarter or two.

I'll admit being highly discouraged over this fund, but that would also carry over to all the markets in the world and every bullish fund out there.
