Unfortunately the 'Dow' is a US dollar denominated asset. The Fed and
Treasury can make the Dow by worth just about any number of USD they want to
get Bush re-elected (and they have). However, the real issue is whether
your investments are ahead in June 2004 against any real measure (what does
medical insurance cost, what does a trip to Paris cost in USD, what does
underwear made in China at WallMart cost, what does it cost to fill up your
car, how many Euros can you buy, how many ounces of Gold, etc, etc). Forget
Govt CPI number - that's pure baloney designed to get CPI indexed government
payments low (IE Social Security).
Beef, Copper, Gold, Silver etc etc are going through the roof. It is quite
likely that June 2004 will see a further 20% decline in the dollar (read
commodities up approx 20% - as in oil at $ 36/barrel). 'IF' you have $USD
100,000 invested in the DOW now at 9965; and 'IF' it hits it hits 11,350 by
June 2004, relative to say, a European or Japanese Investor in their
currencies you will have lost. An investment in
