@YBB - tell us more about this Barron's effect please? I admit that I am no where near your level of investing knowledge and that this is a new one on me.
@YBB, whether it's "fair" to compare FCNTX to PRWCX I'll leave to others but this description is from the T Rowe Price website regarding PRWCX:
"Investment Objective
The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common sto…
@stayCalm - you mentioned "Giroux became manager of PRWCX in 2006. I don't know the exact date but from Jan 1, 2006 to present day PRWCX has beaten BRUFX comfortably."
I only wish to add a stalwart of my own to that comparison FCNTX which beats th…
@Crash - what has been a normal/usual/general amount of cash for this fund? And are they known for building up cash levels during times like the present?

@rono - I don't believe that folks are dismissing or making light of the pollution and health risks but rather they are pointing at the blood-sucking lawyers and law firms sucking and crawling around for those payouts which should really be aiding t…
A little snippet rom Alex Eule at Barron's re: yesterday's market action:
"Among the stocks on my dashboard that I follow every day, the biggest gainers were: online car dealer Carvana (+32%), e-commerce firm Wayfair (+28%), alternative meat produc…
Go bankrupt, blame everyone and anyone except himself for the failure. Promise one thing, do another and finally fire anyone who is not sufficiently loyal.
I must have bought your PARA. $16 seemed like a good bet. I wonder what Mr. Buffett and/or his minions are thinking on this one. Also bought AMZN yesterday and DIS before the open. Those prices seemed to be getting a bit ridiculous. Not to say that …
Sure.
Why? Because it's condoned, excused, justified, belittled or mocked depending on what side of the political aisle you occupy. The attack on Paul Pelosi is a recent example. Find me one republican willing to call it out for what it was. Nope. …
