I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.

Not seeing where he does this, but it's an astonishing thing to charge in any case, ra…
Ah. Thanks v much for specific example. Interesting. I bet that was not unique. That's a nontrivial bid-ask.
I just checked at ML and for AOR at the moment it's 44.24 and 44.28, 4 cents. ~1% if my arithmetic is good today. Vol 56k. I did not try a…
Pardon ignorance, but not following --- how does volume affect much of anything in this case? They are made up of a variety of other etfs ....
Ah, if you had a mil (20k sh) in AOA and wanted to sell it all at once, that would depress your price?

Don't know about 'have to be', but a year ago I bought a Toyota-certified used Prius w/ a 1y / 12k warranty, and actually had to use it, which is pretty rare for a Prius in my experience of family owning a half-dozen. (Ends in another couple weeks.)

All welcome. I have a sib who's one of the contributing econs at PIIE (globalization is his expertise and academic gig) and he sends me occasional samples of colleagues' work. Although somehow I'd heard of this Cline view prior; I thought it was her…
Yeah, I am a little surprised at the degree to which I feel more content from having gone for equity funds all into DSENX (12% ytd) plus handfuls of 2-3 others.
Good to know BoA are so bad. I don't keep up. I could not deal w WF ever. BoA treats me v well, including or especially the local branches in-person c/s, and way more cheaply (rates etc) than other banks around here, and including credit unions. Plu…
Well, be sure to always let the perfect be the defeater of the good. Maybe Maimonides said that as well. Somehow doubt it, as he was also a practical guy sometimes.
I myself can regularly tell the difference b/w actual ads and corporate sponsorship…
Nah, totally luck of the buy, decades ago.
I do enjoy the company's parties.
Enjoy many of the people hardly more or less than neighbors in Waltham and Somerville long ago :) .

Wait, whose point are you making??
Romney was weak (worse than weak, but putting it nicely) in any number of respects, and latterly has become rehabbed into this ersatz statesman quite by default.
Five years after your article, Baker has brought t…
Right, who says that? Howie?

@Crash,
Can't tell if you are genuinely curious about the answer, but this might be of interest, from a year and a half ago:
