August Commentary: Saturday, August 12, it's alive!!
David I hope Chip is getting better, but please don't over exert yourselves just to publish MFO! there are many capable other people who wrote great articles this month and while there is probably no data that pushing yourself during Covid recovery delays the recovery, why chance it?
I really enjoyed the reference to Mathers Fund.
Maybe a few other grey beards here will remember the Mathers fund and good old Henry Van der Erb. His commentaries were pretty good, ala Hussman. While I didn't put much money into the fund, his commentaries kept me from being 100% equities for a few years in my 30s, when I really should have dumped everything into the market.
I never knew Bruce ran the Mathers fund before Henry, nor did I know Van der Erb was such a jerk

I should asked him to autograph my Orange Juice carton, but respected his privacy!
