I don't do a lot of fund switching and I'm pretty widely diversified
given the overall market. Vanguard funds I continue to like include Asia
Pacific, REIT, and I'll be a buyer of more Energy following correction -
I believe these 3 areas will hold up during any consolidation/weakness.
Still like corporate bonds but have lightened up a bit as I am expecting
a pull-back. Still holding Small Cap Growth which has been getting a
good kick from the NASDAQ rally, however I'm seeing some signs of a
possible shift to big cap value.
