Kiplinger's features "Money Funds: Still Safe After All These Years". The subtitle says, "Barring unimaginable financial catastrophe, you can count on sponsors riding to the rescue". Joan Goldwasser writes, "Every few years, it seems, a new financial crisis threatens the money-market-fund industry's nearly perfect record for stability.... [But] with more than $3 trillion in assets in money funds, sponsors will do what it takes to dodge a black eye. To avoid 'breaking the buck,' sponsors may have to absorb losses of up to $150 million, less than half of one day's interest income from all of the nation's money funds."
