Couple of Vanguard Questions

[Red_y]

ytd 44%, 12 month performance 55%, sounds like a good way to buy High to me, particularly since it is a bond fund and interest rates are at historic lows. (although I don't have a clue what the interest rates have been doing in the emerging markets the fund invests in, I would guess they have been falling for the fund to have done so well in this last year).

Agree on the 'buy high' comment, but I believe the stellar performance is more tied to the falling US dollar. FNMIX doesn't hedge currency exposure.
