Earl,

I don't disagree with your analysis, however, if one is trading dollar
denominated mutual funds, such as the Scudder Japan Fund, fluctuations in the
currency market would be reflected in the fund price.  In other words,
couldn't straight technical analysis of the mutual fund be used to make buy
and sell decisions without worrying about the changes in the currency market?

I will appreciate your thoughts on this subject.
