What is your favorite mutual fund that is still open and why?
@hank: I could handle ICMAX before HSGFX. Speaking of which, has anyone heard what is doing these days?
Thanks for commenting on ...
... just one of my typical smart a** remarks. I owned HSGFX years ago. And don’t understand how it’s survived either. But will say I think he’s going to finally have a good year ... or maybe a couple. But that’s just based on my view of equities and the entire macro climate - not any misplaced confidence in Hussman.
I can’t name a “favorite fund”. Of the houses I deal with, T. Rowe Price leads the pack. Plenty of smarts there - and not limited to a particular fund. Pervades the whole organization. To be sure, there are lower cost alternatives.
I sleep very well with a foot in OAKBX and PRPFX. Part of that is that I leave these ones alone, not trading in and out. So they’re very long term holds and I don’t fret about them. But, heck, I could probably learn to sleep well with most of the funds mentioned in this thread.

No - I haven’t heard about Eric Cinnamond.
