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.
It seems unlike you, in my experience, to stay so stubbornly mistaken. (Do you seriously believe that we stamp out all the parts and boards here for such manufacturing as we still do? Sometimes yes, more often not. Warfighter rescue and intel robots…

It seems clear you do not understand how manufacturing works now.

VTV is not SP500 value, right? That would be VOOV.
3/4 as many stocks.
And if you write and edit fund prospectuses, you recognize that the D&C language nuance / emphasis are subtly more different from than similar to the TRP language.
@bee
So confused. Corporate PR you cite seems to make it clear made in USA. No?
So ... you did not mean what you typed and what I was querying?
Reread what you posted and tell me where I am off, k? 'Probably not even made in the US.' How about th…
The hed here is also misleading --- DSENX ytd has done only a little worse than VOOV, and way better than poor RPV.
So 'good until it wasn't' isn't the case, as I understand the phrase, which applies more to our favorite punchees Miller, Berkowitz…
The Gundlach bond sauce has been a drag for some time now, not a plus, since before this crisis, although CAPE all on its own has lagged SP500 slightly also for some time.
The bond sauce makes DSE_X more like holding CAPE plus some gogo Pimco fund…
VLAAX -13.8 and VALIX -24.2, ouch
30-70 and 40-60 of the below would be worse than 50-50, obvs, did not compute, but better than the above:
50-50 BND + CAPE = ~-10.5, same as BND + VOO
50-50 BND + VOOG = -7.6
Captain Crozier failed the test and responsibility to complete his mission. If he cant do it in peacetime what would he do in war. Better to get him out now!!!
How so? Is it possible that you too do not know the story details?

Fyi, a certain type or types of CV tests have a significant false-neg rate, up to 30%. If you are symptomatic you should presume positive even with such a result. The other types of CV tests are said to be much better, though as with all tests none …
He deserved to be relieved of his duty. Remember, military life is not civilian life, there is a chain of command and it must be adhered to PERIOD. Also, he likely set off undue panic among sailor families. And most importantly, he revealed to the w…
yeah, by definition

like many I have been appalled at the behavior of PONAX and PDVAX, but figured, yeah, well, Pimco, RE and all that
I see that both have lately outperformed FADMX (formerly FSICX), whi…
Fido FullView remains quite sketchy and laggy. Perhaps this has been noted already; I certainly have posted such for many years now. It seemed the last few months to have finally settled down and gotten quicker and actually accurate, but tonight is …

It's more than that, to an extent; if you graph AGG since the first week of March against DODIX, FTBFX, also BOND and BND, you see that only the last comes close to matching it (and for longer periods also, and forget anything Pimco now except maybe…

@DS,
Hmm ... how are they tracking Div Aristocrats back 20y, do they say? Or the others?
VOO (best SP500 I know of) outperforms NOBL (Div Aristocrat) since NOBL inception, ~6.5y ago, and CAPE trounces both (also trouncing DVY and SDY), so it wou…
