why are you investing in class a mutual funds? For every $100 you put in 5.25% automatically comes out. Meaning you start off in the hole the expense ratio is WAY TOO HIGH as well on mavax and mdefx. I would take a long look at no load funds (try comparison searches on morningstar). Not bad but you could do way better than this.

BROIX is an institutional share. Do you have the 2 million minimum? Go to morningstar.com to do more research. Look for the 4 and 5 star accounts. Right now you have a 2 star, your bond account, a 3 star, your basic value account, and a 4 star the international account.
Funny thing is that on 9-26-06 an analyst Arijit Dutta said the global allocation fund is a pick. The only one in the entire fund family. Maybe you should keep the global fund... Check out MCLRX 5 stars.

Just a quick look and I found out that their performance is very similar... but the BROIX looks a little more diversified... which should mean a little "safer" MDEFX seems heavily invested in financials( loans and banks) and also energy ( could be great,but could falter occasionally too) I didn't see what your other two funds hold, but if they are anything similar to MDEFX, then switch something to the BROIX
Just my thoughts....good luck!!

choices are aplenty when it comes to investing... one such is currency trading and available in 24 hrs a day... there are also many systems available in the market to provide tips as well but do observe their terms and conditions.. take a look at http://www.prosignal-forex.com/index.php?ref=1342 for example. hope this helps!
