Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
It is ALL alarming, but to say that is by now an understatement. "Disappearing" people also includes simply canceling their legally permitted status to be in the USA. Did you see that Venezuelans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, Salvadorans have had their TP…
Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic magazine: (per The Hill.)
...He wrote that he initially had strong doubts the text group was real, “because I could not believe that the national-security leadership of the United States would communicate on Signal a…
I'm not surprised to hear this about USPS. Sadly, it's become just plain bad. Deliberately. Louis DeJoy was appointed by Orange Felon, with a mission to destroy it. Much progress has been made. Lately, after being supremely shamed by a Congressional…
The USA has indeed sunk so very low. Elect a buffoon ONCE, that's bad. Elect an EVIL SCUMBAG buffoon TWICE? NORMAL countries are distancing themselves, clearly. People are moving where they have or can get 2nd citizenship. Rosie O'Donnell: Ireland.
Kudos and a big thank you to Dr. Snowball who has reviewed and brought to our attention the Sherman run funds at Riverpark and Crossingbridge. I have been very satisfied with the multiple funds Sherman runs that I own and he deserves this award with…
After taking my bigger than normal chunk from the IRA in January---after a winning 2024--- I'm down just -2% at the moment. Nothing to write home about. Market conditions are dicey. Everything is political, when you come right down to it. No avoidin…
35-27, end of 1st Half: Houston leads Gonzaga. The Dawgs managed a bit of a comeback toward the end of the half. Still down by 8. But it is not the blowout that it almost was looking like, for Houston... Bulldogs only managed 3 three-pointers, so fa…
That's the truth, OJ! From Friday's PBS Newshour, I heard the President of Princeton Univ. taking issue with what the Orange Evil Pud is doing. I went to school next-door, at Princeton Seminary. Trumpy Doink and others are painting it as ipso facto …
Remarkable, the deliberate ignorance, unwillingness to SEE what is happening under their noses. They all need a detox farm to recover from Orange Kool-Aid addiction. The Orange "President" has already broken his oath more times than you can count. H…
They will continue to dissemble, obfuscate, mischaracterize, misconstrue and lie. They will ignore the Judges. The coup rolls on. Until people wearing badges and military uniforms uphold their oaths, because the Orange Bag of mongoose farts has brok…
I can't find any reasons to commit to a market which seemingly has no direction. If I'm going to wander aimlessly I'd rather do so on a hiking trail.
+1.
I will reinvest the "free money" that comes via dividends. Otherwise, I'm keeping it simple, j…
Bulldogs vs. Bulldogs.
GU 89 vs. U-GA 68.
I plum forgot to even put it on my calendar.
Go, Zags!

Will they get cremated by Houston, next?

Once, to try something new, I bought a Scotch labeled "Loch Lomond." Gawd, it was evil. Tasted like CANDY. Sweeter than the flan the Filipinas make for dessert.

Canadian woman with a work visa to be here legally has been deported. A French academic was detained upon arrival for a scientific symposium; accused of negative remarks re: Trump, possible treason. But he's a foreigner. How could it be treas…
Population and economy one-tenth the size of the USA. I almost ended-up in Canada full-time. But I'm happy not to have had to endure the winters in the southern interior of B.C. High cost of living. Otherwise, pretty awesome place.

PRWCX .84

FALN 1.56 higher quality junk.
It's fun for me to keep tabs, daily. I own them all except FALN. I used to own FALN, got out with a tiny profit. If I want such volatility, I can depend on my single stock…
My Senator (Schatz, Hawaii) gave an attempted thoughtful, reasoned reply to my message to him. The thinking was: "The Repugnants will use the chance to just KEEP things shut-down, cutting spending even further, thus ostensibly justifying the extensi…
+1 Will give it a ride sometime. Might have made enough in today’s market to buy one. :)
From a review a long time ago: "If you like the taste of ashes, drink Laphroaig." VERY peaty.
I'm still buy-and-hold, but now with some limitation-bands I keep an eye on. I'm no trader. Like others, I've been growing my MMkt fund, and stocks are not the majority of my portfolio any longer. The turmoil is hard to take, but my homework keeps m…
Thanks for the updates. Glad to be corrected. My niece graduated from U-Georgia. 20th of March, so I see on the schedule. Mid-morning game-time here in Hawaii.
One day BLX performance = down. Latam. But it's otherwise been carrying on, despite all the Orange Noise, Confusion and Interference. Pays 4Q dividend a week from today. (25th March.) My only holding that was DOWN today, with @hank's original post i…
Jayzuz. Can the Repugnants get anymore pathetic? Think that one will get out of Committee? This is GASLIGHTING: EXHIBIT A. BTW, Hey, Orange Donny! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!!!
crash. 7 other posters did not connect Israel to Schumer and the funding issue. Only you did. You sure do have Israel on the brain. As crash would say,,,ORK.
Just a little editorial on my part. Uncle Chucky is definitely Israel's best Senator o…
