Thank you for the note about only changing the ticker to maintain the "old" page.
I'd been tripped by this too many times in the past. I do look at performance with M* pages (among other sites, too); and I prefer the M* "risk/reward…

Nuclear experts: Disaster depends on where the fire is taking place
As a fire reported by Ukrainian officials continues at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, nuclear experts answered some of the most urgent questions:
Are there…
Hi @hank et al
You noted cash flows relative to bonds in your post, with a date reference of Feb. 23. Feb. 23 is a good beginning point for bonds, related to the Madman's attack of Ukraine.
I don't attempt to grab data about cash flows, as there…

And how hard will the economic crunch have to be on Russian society from the mega wealthy to the dirt farmer, for Putin to wonder whether his final resting place with be in a distant forest among the roots of birch trees???

You're thinking this is a "partee"???
Ironic that you placed CCCP, the "old" Soviet Union acronym. Tis where the "madman's" mind is stuck.
The Ukrainian invasion is a global turning point event. The globa…
@johnN Better keep track of things on an hourly basis if you want to invest in Russia. If you're not willing to invest at least 5% of a portfolio for a meaningful return, you're only playing, yes? Why bother.

Hi @hank
One of these from Fido??? No login required.
AND to note, yes.........cyber warfare; not a pleasant thought. A system/network hack may only be good as a "one time". One won't be able to use it again on the same system/network.

Hi @yogibearbull
This chart is a just for the "heck of it", that I set several years ago for my viewing pleasure. Tracking the yield, versus pricing performance; so we're looking at the percentage change in yield rate over period "x". This particula…

I wasn't directing my thoughts regarding this topic (your link) and Mr. Grantham. My comments are strictly related to the premise of your linked article.
Hi @hank
The graphic diagram should have stayed in the post, IMHO, too; to ENTICE everyone to read and save the report.
However, one of the best links at MFO......ever.

Hi @BaluBalu
You noted: "(CNBC, Fox Business, Bloomberg) seem to operate the way Facebook operates (targeting hysteria, outrage, fear, and other extreme human emotion). Not sure if the world has always been this way because I only started paying att…

Hi @AndyJ and @hank Jeff Daniels is the first good clue about exploring movie subject matter. If one wants to have more insight into human nature, Jeff Daniels can take you on that journey. And yes, our house is familiar with the movie, too.

Mike McKee (Bloomberg) is the best I am aware of, with making sense of Fed. meetings, jobs numbers and related.

I'm reluctant to write this here; and my last entry for this OT subject.
@hank , you noted:
I think your article confuses the terms “poll watchers” and “poll workers.” There’s an important distinction.
The term watcher or worker is interchangeabl…
Hi @carew388
We should expect a high level of efficiency and competency due to the management fees we pay on these funds. Abigail Johnson is worth 23 billion so I think they can shell out a few more bucks to resolve these issues!

Everything equity is being thrown to the trash bin; quality or not. Enough of this and the majority of equity becomes called "value" stocks. Still too much money waiting to buy, IMHO.

Crash, you've likely read here over the years the discussions about Fido, Schwab, TRP, Vanguard, etc.
I'm biased with Fido, as our investment accounts started with them in 1978. Fully our decision after investigation. We also have some experience w…
