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.
@Bobby may be referring to this piece by @LewisBrahamn on American Funds fee reductions, including for its bond funds, that I saw LAST week but that ended up in a separate Barron's Advisor section (behind ANOTHER paywall) - I found a summary in the open web. This is not the regular Barron's online or weekend Barron's magazine.
Isaac Asimov tells about a time when he sat in on a class discussing one of his stories. At the end of the class he introduces himself as the author and tells the teacher that he is wrong about what the story meant. The teacher's reply is along the lines of: just because you're the author, that doesn't mean that you know what the story's about.
@msf, it seems that @LewisBraham doesn't post or link here his professional stuff in Barron's and elsewhere. There may be contractual or personal reasons. Anyway, I post here stuff from various sources that I THINK the MFO community may like. https://muckrack.com/lewis-braham/articles
My comment was with respect to the OP. Legal issues or not, it would be a little difficult for Lewis to post links to articles that he says don't exist.

This is another reason why I hope people will include links to items they quote or reference.
