Fund of the Week: VGSIX Vanguard REIT Index
Real Estate had a good week with VGSIX Vanguard REIT Index outperforming all the other funds I track. JAOSX Janus Overseas deserves a shout out though as it is outperforming every other fund I track year to date showing a gain over 50%.
Only one fund failed to gain ground last week. Bonds were mostly flat, but BSV Vanguard Short Term Bond ETF lost 0.03%.

Fund of the Week: PNRZX Jennison Natural Resources
PNRZX Jennison Natural Resources was up 11.01% last week. Not bad for a week's "work."
Natural Resource Funds led the way with growth, value, and blend and small and large cap funds all taking a place in the top 10, along with one Emerging Market fund. Year to date all these funds are up now, but since May 1, 2007, they are all still down sharply.
In contrast, the bottom 10 funds, from the funds I track, have all posted gains since May 1, 2007 but all lost value last week and half have lost value year to date. Bond funds are slipping and BTTRX American Century Target 2025, one of the strongest performers since May 07, lost the most, down 6.01% in one week.

Portfolio Update 7/17/09: Days Go By
Days Go By and still I think of the late 90s.
Will we ever see a market that hot again?
Month after month of weeks like last week.
It'll take something special to get us out of this hole, eh?
Year to date, The WylieMoney Slowly portfolio is up almost 10%. That leaves it down only 20% since May 1, 2007. Only...
ETFs, representing the same 20 fund categories, can't keep up.

Portfolio Update 7/10/09: Remember the Time?
Remember the Time I used to post updates on this blog?
Well, what can I say. I got distracted.
Things are only slightly worse than when I last posted...
ETFs are not holding up as well as index mutual funds this year...
