      Thanks for clarification. I had checked M* before posting and it showed/shows:
      Advisor(s)
      Riverpark Advisors, LLC
      Sub-Advisor
      Cohanzick Management LLC
      It could be just M* presentation when a financial firm that can do its own advising uses an external advisor.
  • Yogi,
    Before I posted my comment about my beloved former professor Donald L. Tuttle, I thought that I had read somewhere that the firm where he was listed as a senior advisor was associated with the subject fund. Today I can't find that link so I must be mistaken. Sadly, I just learned today that Dr. Tuttle passed away just this week, on August 21, 2023. He was an excellent professor and an even better man. After completing his undergraduate class, he invited me to attend the graduate-level investments class that he taught as well. I later earned an MBA (Finance and Investments) at City University of NY where Marty Zweig and other Wall Street figures taught part-time in the Evening program. I regret my post about what I mistakenly believed might have been a link between Dr. Tuttle and Cramer.

    Ybb,
    I am alive and well, thanks, and do read the forum. I don't post Krugman articles few read anymore, or similar from my exhaustive personal daily reading, having decided life is too short and too packed for such. I don't ask the many questions I have about my new love interests CDC, DSTK, and CCOR (also STIP), which do not get much if any informed comment.

    I am shocked at how bad things have gone, how down I am financially, for few really good reasons, imo.

    I am no longer in CAPD and wish I had not dived quite so heavily into VONE. I don't regret having a lot in FMSDX.

    It'll all turn at some damn point. I will move a lot from VONE to CDC and DSTL, I expect.

    The actual straw for me, apart from my general 'overbusyness' trend, came when The Smartest Guy in the Room went on splitting hairs over and defending inadvertent / unintentional naked shorting. Life is way too short for such, good grief.

    I hope you and yours are safe and well.
