If you see a lot of longer-term MBS and straight corporate bonds, maybe you own a bond fund instead of a MMF?<BR/><BR/>There are MMF's that invest only in government securities like treasury bills and repos backed by govt. bonds. They are considered very safe, although they usually yield less than regular MMF's.<BR/><BR/>Talk to your investment professional, he/she should be able to steer you in the right direction.<BR/><BR/>RegardsHellasioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03564511281240682625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4102429195693595750.post-90876833084034279102007-03-11T06:46:00.000+02:002007-03-11T06:46:00.000+02:00Will this rotting extend to/affect money market fu...Will this rotting extend to/affect money market funds? I worry about this because I see alot of MBS in my MMF prospectus (and unfortunately also alot of corporate bonds from big investment banks ...). <BR/>Thanks for your thoughts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
