John Waggoner: Invesco, Longleaf Funds Stashing Cash As Bear Market Cushion

FYI: You might have clients who want to get in to the stock market, but don't want to take much risk, particularly as the Standard and Poor's 500 stock index flirts with new highs.

Your first job, of course, is to explain that this is like wanting to go swimming but not get terribly wet. Risk and reward are tied at the hip.
Regards,
Ted

    Corrections to the article: The ticker for Hennessy Focus Fund is HFCSX, not HSCFX. Hennessy Total Return Fund invests 75% in the "Dogs of the Dow" strategy (per Hennessy web site), not 50%.

    @Tony: Nobody knows funds like MFO Members. Nice correction, I called John and told him if he keeps this up, I'm putting him on a short leash. Just kidding !
