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.
The thing is no one has benefit of hindsight. If you don't sell it will go bankrupt. If you do sell, it will go up. I have a 100% record on this.
Just to prove it to myself again I'm going to buy some penny stocks tomorrow. Not randomly. I will com…
Whenever I've doubled down I've lost 100% of everything
Whenever I've cut and run, I know exactly how much I lost or gained.
The first is about alignment of the planets, tea leaves, etc.
The second is about logic. Now of course, that wouldn't make…
Huh? Who's dispensing investment advice ?!?!?!
Some people do bungee jumping. Some people don't. I'm just telling you I don't do bungee jumping. Heck, I'm scared to Ski.
Someone asked, I answered. I would say "Sue Me", but in this case even that d…
Are we sure we are discussing the right thing?
Corp Tax Cuts were supposed to trickle down.
$700B gone to stock buybacks
Real Wages of middle class up 0.4% since the cuts
4% of people actually got a wage because of tax cuts
Now Mnuchin wants to ex…
@Derf all Long term. I'm not a day trader :-D
I've ranted about WHEN vs WHAT when it comes to investing. I take profits regularly just like I take losses. I never carry a loss over to next year, so I will take some profit somewhere. I always pay cap…
@VF: taxable or not account ?
Derf
All 3 in taxable. FMIJX additionally in IRA as well. A wise man once told me 2 things. I didn't listen to him when he told them to me, but in time I came to live it.…
@Old_Joe. Exactly. Sometimes an observation is an observation. The extreme version of this is some people at work who say things like "I find this interesting" - means absolutely nothing and they could have just kept their mouths shut.
Now I own al…
I think they should keep paying fine until they go bankrupt. Kinda like people keep on holding on to mutual fund until it goes down to 0. Because anyone still doing business with WF really needs to have their head examined. And if they will not pull…

Okay, the last one is only for people working at AQR.
Okay, I just have to say something.
Windows is the BEST thing out there for mortals. Windows 10 is awesome.
You want to buy a Mac for 3 times the price, you go ahead.
You want to make Linux work as a personal device, I wish you luck.

Hasn't someone said this each year for at least the past 5 years? I hope the one person who is proven right, which is bound to happens some time, does not end up becoming a celebrity.
Just in case I've noted this date. If nothing happens in one ye…
Why? These people are suppose to serve us. We turn them into celebrities and then complain. Leave them alone, and then they will fill the need to do their jobs properly instead of pandering to the public.
Everyone is a freakin' celebrity.
WTF?! I used to keep allocation to gold while selling TGLDX at tax loss. Now I think I will sell this one after 30 days and ALSO take tax loss.
!@#$%^&*
I purchased some PRIJX for my in-laws account. Preferred it over PRMSX. I hope I timed it right. Surprising they are PRMSX when tide just seems to be turning for Emerging Markets.
Really need an alternative to M*.
It feels to me as if say Xerox was the only company making photocopiers.
Or Dell only company making computers.
Or for some, Facebook is the only way to waste your time.
@dstone2 My tea leaves have been telling me the same thing and the alignment of the planets have confirmed it. I'm just waiting for South Korea to tell me when to sell at the exact market high.
@Crash. We simply have to stop using that term. Doesn't matter it is true and not just opinion. I think mental checkup will prove it. Still we have to stop because you do that and they will vote Trump again.
Tell a lie. Call them smart. Say "I kno…
Please implement IGNORE feature where one User does not see posts from another User. Problem solved.
Agree. It can't be that hard to do, given that M* does it.
Also not hard to provide links to SAME websites with posts from SAME Authors that keep g…
I re-established my position in PRBLX as the core for my Roth today. Now that they sold WFC I like the fund again, and will be redeploying my TWEIX proceeds into it over the near future. It is paired with POGRX to give a growthy slant to my Rot…
I'm continuously adding and selling so not sure it counts. I took some profits in VMVFX, AUXFX, and slew of Artisan funds earlier in the year. I've added some back.
Then I sold of funds at TDA (ulcer alert) to get ready for closing account. Waited…
@Ted and @Old_Joe don't you two have anything better to do with your lives than fight like little school girls?
I request you to scan all the posts from both Ted and Old_Joe. You will quickly conclude the fight is not between 2 girls.
First of all …
Where can we get foreign investments in US stock market. Good to know if when International markets were crashing earlier this year as $ went up, what they were doing with their money.
@rforno Like I said...no prospects for dems.
What has Trump not done yet he needs to do before pubes sour on their party? Even Pence wins best case for them.
To me a more interesting question is why are U.S. bankruptcy laws applied differently to the common man or woman versus corporations or certain wealthy individuals that happen to currently hold high office?
I thought the US would have collapsed it …
But then Fox will endorse all his policies, so this is just playing to the crowd isn't it? Maybe they are more upset at suggestion Trump is behaving in a way Putin does. Maybe they want to say Trump is an original.
