@rforno - while I appreciate the head's up on tomorrows twit tweet you forgot to work in how this is all Biden's fault. Or is that just implied at this stage of nonsense?
Thank you for your comments a2z. I took a position in PRCFX when it opened in my Roth and have been adding opportunistically on down market days. No complaints.
@Crash, correct, at least for me as well. What I didn't know is that there was a group of recipients receiving their SS checks on the 3rd day of the month and another receiving SSI payments on the 1st. I also didn't know if there's another group of …
So let's say that one owns PRWCX (wish I did). How is that different from owning a 60/40 portfolio? And BTW is Giroux and/or his team of bond analysts really that much better at selecting the funds bond components than all the other bond fund teams …
I can't. I can't imagine the anguish or the fear or the state of WTF. Disgusting, despicable, the list is near endless. If this is making us great again count me out.
@YBB - So I just re-read the "OP Link" and can't see what info isn't correct. Please help if you can because I try to be very particular about links I provide to the discussion board.
I would agree that the 'title' of the article may confuse some.
"Is it normal for the POTUS to instruct a retail company (Walmart) to eat tariffs that he was responsible for?"
You know, I have/had the same question. I also wondered how many previous presidents had a throng of CEO's following them half way aroun…
"So, what happened if you sold a month ago?"
Oh if only everyone would have known that inner-circle, inside information that was passed out. I'll have to get me that Signal app.
"Experts say any such gift on a foreign government's behalf presents opportunities for surveilling, tracking or compromising communications of the president and anyone traveling with him. “
No worries at all! They have Signal to take care of that.
When I see your question @dily the first thing I take a look at (for better or worse) is the portfolio composition. The top 10 and sector composition at Fidelity and M* match pretty closely and didn't provide any pokes in the eye with a sharp stick …
Thanks for the reply @hank. So you constructed & maintain it, got it. I too own a number of CEF's just not in this format. I became interested back in the old FundAlarm days when a regular poster 'Ed' was all over them and he would toss them out…
@rforno - "This idiot is waging his trade 'war' in 90-day increments. If anything this kneejerk reaction is a good time to lighten up on anything you want to get rid of."
Did that this morning with a couple of laggards. Two wheels on this roller co…
@hank - So is this component CEF basket something that you assembled and manage or something that (I think you said) Fidelity manages for you? Who coordinates the buys/sells? What are you looking for from this CEF basket if RIO & FLO were parts …
"The recent elevation of Mr. Bessent, who is viewed as a pragmatist on trade, to lead the talks with China has also helped to calm markets."
Is this the same guy who couldn't tell congressman Pocan who pays tariffs? We're doomed. Maybe he could use…

@Old_Joe - I thought that Kristi Noem was the dog shooter. Bondi does it too? And please, there's more brain matter in cow pies than there is in these two combined.
