Yes Capitalism always provides competitve advantage (and leverage) to size. Thats why large corporations always want to be #1 or #2 in their industry or they exit altogether.
Thanks for your thoughts Lewis.
Each of those concepts you mentioned were new discoveries (not inventions). IOW's new to man but not new to Earth's physics and capabilities under our sun since day one. But 'nothing new under the sun' refers to…
Important to remember the intent of why legislation forcing debt limits was created in the first place. Eventually the make up of actors involved will force change. Government does not have a mindset of cost control like other entities within the U…
With our debt approaching $250,000 for every US taxpayer...one day we will wake up and everything about gold will change. Taleb writes about retrospective distortion.
The sole decision making is the responsibility of the new portfolio manager(s). The research staff of several hundred (last I checked) provides data. So I personally believe there is more risk in the mgr change than the average Wellington investor …
I just hope VWINX has not quietly changed to more growth like VWELX did some time ago (using same research employee base). Maybe VWELX change was deliberately announced?? Don't remember.
This fund is increasing attractive to my personal risk tolerance. Been on watch list for 6 months. Conclusions from this thread: Available Schwab $49.95 for $2500 min. Available Firstrade also. Any more places to buy GQPHX or GQHIX for a reasona…
Auriana and Heebner were the small cap axe for a while.
Auriana's KAUFX used to have a $3 NAV so daily % changes were interesting back in the day.

When I start by clicking on different Max, 10Y, 5YR and then enter 3/15/21 slider date.....I get different left hand chart start dates. I also notice your screen print shows a shaded start and end date that msf and myself does not have.
Not for me. When I move the slider to the left, the VWINX total return number does not change. Anybody else? Anybody have a clue?
When I set my slider at 3/15/2021, the far left hand date is 11/29/2019.

In Add Comparison use CGDV
you see shaded "Index" on left of box but no shaded "ETF" choices as before.
The coding issue may be specific to a Mutual fund to ETF comparison problem.

Yogi, thank you. I am looking for 52 week forward S&P 500 earnings estimates (many times noted as 'Forward' in publications), not the earnings multiple 25.02. So the number I am expecting is somewhere around $233.04 (I think) but I would like …
Thank you Mark. I am wondering if there is a table updated weekly with these stats? It used to be towards the front of the mag. I might need to stop by the library and look at one.
Anyone know of a free site that provides Benchmark, M* Category and M* Index on one page view? M* Style box would be a bonus. Port Viz gives 2 of the 3 on one page but not all 3 or 4.
