Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: The broader stock market (as measured by the New York Stock Exchange Composite) may be making marginal progress. A 2.5% appreciation in price over the last nine months is mildly positive.
