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.
Well, I started reading Professor Snowball's monthly commentaries. In the June commentary, it is mentioned that a fund should be judged on its performance over a full market cycle, and not on performance over a certain arbitrary period of time. That makes sense. So.....
Thought I'd share this from a response I just posted to teapot:
On the premium site, you have 21 selectable evaluation periods (lifetime, 20, 10, 5, 3, and 1 year, plus full, down, and up market cycles) for all risk and performance metrics... Here is link to display metrics available.
We will be adding even more evaluation periods to the premium site, but intend to leave the main site search tools in legacy form.
