Did you even read the article? As for expedited delivery, I am a prime member and I can count on less than 2 fingers how many times I've received a shipment within the stated 2-day window. It's one thing to state that's what they are going to do and…
Okay, so we don't want people investing their social security taxes in the stock market (too risky they say) but we'll create this phantom source of value which fluctuates based on the whatnot for them to play with. Good plan.
For the life of me I just do not understand peoples reluctance, resistance or outright refusal to get the Covid vaccine. What do they think they're proving? The mind reels.
5. I played the 20-30 game at one time but found that I was never able to strike a meaningful position in any particular one, enough to move the needle on total portfolio performance that is. As mentioned by hank I also grew tired monitoring all of …
My latest attempt at stepping outside this garden for a bit involved purchasing a windows 10 desktop computer to replace my older windows 7 assembly which was a nightmare to upgrade. Bottom line was that the new desktop refused to allow or accept th…
I've held FCNTX since 1986. In July, 2019 I made my first sale to open a position in BIAWX for both curiosity and speculation that Danoff may float the idea of retiring. Since then FCNTX has increased in value 32.8% while BIAWX has gone up by 52.6%.…
@BF - right, Facebook and Twitter are the problem deciding the narrative and all like that but the Heritage and Koch Foundations are spot on. Gimmee a break will ya.
@MrRuffles - to your statement "Even if they don’t make public declarations, companies show where they stand (and always have) by their actions and policies" I think that you might add political party/candidate donations. Money speaks louder than th…
We’ve seen this show before haven’t we? Pretty much everything can and will go wrong except for a small few. Nothing like a stock market loss to get your mind right and the lawsuits flying. Can’t wait.
A counter arguement/opinion to @davfor's post above regarding Biden's Fossil Fuel Moves..... above:
Why Biden Approved ConocoPhillips' Willow Field In Alaska: It's All About Securing The TAPS
I don;'t own PONAX or PIMIX but I do own their CEF counter partners PCI, PDI and PTY. Why do I still own them? Because on the first of each month they politely drop $1K+ of distributions into my retirement account. To carry my lunacy even further I …
What's it like moving through life with blinders on? A good segment of the population, especially the under 30 crowd, have already committed to reduce, reuse and recycle. They see a planet awash in tons and tons garbage and waste that will not just …
@hank - the only Fidelity funds I own I own through my brokerage accounts, FSMEX in a taxable account and FTEC in my Roth account.
As far as i know any fund that Fidelity carries can be transferred in kind to a similar brokerage account. If you ow…
FWIW - I have been with Fidelity for over 50 years with hardly a hiccup. Any problems (all minor) were handled promptly with less than a 10 min phone call. No hassles working through their phone menu to obtain an actual human on the other end.
What…
I never thought about it. Saved what I could when I could and figured that I'd find a way through whatever life threw at me. So far so good and on much less than all the prognosticators said that I'd need but no one, especially me, knows for sure.
@Mona - I own MGGPX and I was not expecting it to be up yesterday but it was. Some of the ARK funds as well. I looked at MGGPX and noted it's foreign holdings at roughly 34% of the portfolio. Maybe that helped. Nowhere to run to today however as it …
After watching the 60 Minutes spot on the Ritchie Boys last night I want to punch out every anti masker I see. What those service personnel went through in defense of this country heaps enormous shame on the AM crowd.
