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.
With nearly 200K deaths in the US alone I highly doubt that Covid-19 will ever be forgotten. What I hope the experience does is bring to the forefront an emphasis on trusting the scientific community to do all that they have trained, worked for and …
The Innovators > Tech > Alt Energy > Health > Utilities. In other words pretty much what I own now. In line with your winners above my son and I are exploring cabin properties.
Edit: and I forgot AU + the miners
Based on where I live and the surrounding community if you don't think that Wall Street and Main Street are hundreds of miles apart then you need to come out of your basement once and awhile.
@FD1000 - Not really???!!! Are you serious?
If it's not the responsibility of the common government to address the common problems/enemies for the common good then why even have one? What good is the common government if all they are going to do is…
Gary, Covid was and still is a "national" pandemic sweeping across all states with our respect for boundaries. That requires a "national" response.
Portlands situation is a local problem and it's fitting that Portland sort out the issues. All 45 di…
And also from the Business Insider:
Kushner's coronavirus team shied away from a national strategy, believing that the virus was hitting Democratic states hardest and that they could blame governors, report says

the President of the United States knew exactly how dangerous this virus was. Then, not only did he lie about it, he made a conscious decision to let it run loose because he thought people dying would hurt states run by…
@LewisBraham - yes, all of it correct. I can no longer count the number of times I've asked a Trump supporter to give me a reason, any reason why they continue to support him and all I get are blank stares and no response.
With respect to this art…
"Who spent so much on the military and solved several problems with the VA?"
Half true. He did spend a lot on the military but what problems exactly has he solved? As a veteran who uses the VA I'd really like to know. I certainly haven't seen or ex…
Apparently someone thinks he (45) said that Biden opposes charter school's.
"Our ruling
Trump said that Biden wants to end school choice."
“Joe Biden wants to end school choice.”
@little5bee - it's been my experience that it's not following the rules or what you know, it's WHO you know. Lots of that everywhere. (p.s. my part time hood is the Sarasota area)
If the article was based on one anonymous source I might be a tad skeptical. However it came from several unnamed sources and he also had this history of calling our military leaders stupid and incapable in addition to disparaging Senator McCain. So…
Pretty much all you need to know is right here:
"The timeline raised concern among public health experts about an “October surprise” — a vaccine approval driven by political considerations ahead of a presidential election, rather than science."
@Ben:
1) It's an Off-Topic post. Don't click on it if you don't care for it.
2) As a veteran I thought other veterans might find it of interest especially when 45 claims to love our military and our veterans. Lie much?
3) I had thought that the hon…
OS - you said "However, I'm not going to sit back while others continue with political comments and post without activity myself."
Please point us to those posts because I can't find them. As for individual comments, take issue with the comment rat…
Honestly I don't trust this current market one lick so my excess cash is going into a can buried in the woods of my backyard. I've had positions initiated in April of this year go up >100% but I'm frozen by the ol' "let your winners run thing." C…
'Deemed' was probably a bad word choice, however when I asked where the bottlenecks were most folks stated that the companies told their work force that they were 'deemed' non-essential. Construction was allowed albeit with smaller crews, building m…
So, with all this knowledge about the alleged efficacy of the HCQ cocktail they chose to write their open letter to a community news publication rather than avail themselves of all the rigid scientific studies regarding the use of HCQ. Interesting.

@MikeM, I'm going with option 'B'. It could just be me but the crickets are almost deafening when you ask OS or those of similar views to validate their claims from reputable sources. Sad.
@Sven, (you might already know this but) sometimes those minimum initial investment amounts are not what they seem at Fidelity at least. I have bought some $1M funds with a $2500-5000 initial investment (TIBIX and one of the Eagle funds). I always t…
I don't think anyone here minds the opposing point of view. It's when their claims are justified by nonsense and less than credible web sites that patience wears thin.
