<description><![CDATA[So this fund like several others are at the same level that they were 20 years ago.    I know the market is bad but, I'd think thsy should be responsible for making moves that continue to increase the price of the fund so that when things like this happen it does not wipe out 20 years of gains?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Its a tough call.

Longterm the market will turn around, short term the market will continue to struggle.


IMO in a bad market, the mutual funds managers have proven to be clueless. Its easy to trade/pick good stocks in a good market, but it takes work to make money in a bad market.

Its the bad markets that truely shows whether the mutual fund manager is clueless or not.

Sometimes I honestly believe that the market managers do not actively trade the stocks within the mutuals funds based on current market conditions.

Which makes me ask myself "Why am I paying him??"]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Bad market, but at these levels looks like some good value buying.   Any advice for people who are sitting on the sidelines with cash.   Should they buy more at these levels or wait for a lower price.

Thanks]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[as noted by others, the price drop reflects LT & ST cap. gains , with a dividend distribution to follow asround 12/27

the problem is you didn't know about the distributions,which lower the price of the shares proportionately.   neither did i.   last year, (and as i recall- all previous years) shareholders received a letter detailing approximate LT/ST cap. gains around the end of november.   that did not happen this year, at least i did not get a letter.   the information was also available on the web site in the past.
i am a freqent visitor to the usaa site, and did not find any information on mutual fund distributions, even when particularly looking for it.
i'm sorry to say that usaa "dropped the ball" this time around, causing much angst among us shareholders. i doubt if they will make the same mistake again.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[the fund made a distribution that reduced the price per share but should and might have (havent checked) increased the number of shares you own. if you look at other USAA funds you will see the same.   the fund man. has done the capital gains distribution and not the dividend distribution yet(prob. 27 dec).
NOTE: Share price is 1/3 of the component that makes up your funds returns (not including dividends, and capital gains). im sure that you are still in the +

**i hope this helps]]></description>
