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.
Anna's link is exactly the same as choosing "Fund Discussions" in the "Categories" column at the top left of every page. Nothing new there.
That solution is EXACTLY what so many people here have been pointing out for several YEARS now: If you don't…
With respect to "CecilJK" his profile shows that he Joined in April 2011, since that date has had only 46 visits, 10 comments (the last was in 2017), and started only one discussion: today at 6:30PM.
Let's see, now- 46 visits in nine years, yet "at…
"BREAKING: Hill Republicans suspect disputed anonymous story re Trump disrespecting fallen war vets was planted by Biden campaign"
You mean that story that Fox News found to be accurate? Maybe they helped "plant it" too.
@johnN: Tell us, John- how…
"president-trump-thinks-hes-the-smartest-person-in-the-room"
Well, considering the type of people that he chooses for advisors I suppose that could sometimes be true.
It's been my personal observation that the elections of Obama actually lit the torches of at least some of the Trumpsters. Having a black person as president seems to have been one step too many, and pushed them over the edge. Their entire "value sy…
And there you have it: the defining snapshot of this man's perverted value system. And folks like OS want a person like that as the leader of this country.
Not much else to say here.
Wile it's true that the individual categories are clearly marked, the "Discussions +" section intermixes all of the categories. If "Off-Topic" were excluded from "Discussions +", no one would ever have to look at anything that they didn't want to. T…
I guess that there's something that I'm not understanding on this. If the "Off Topic" section were excluded from the "Discussions +" compilation then the only way to access Off Topic would be to deliberately click on it. Is that doable?
Yes, Jon was a favorite also. He is now retired- for a while he also posted an occasional on-line commentary, but he hasn't done that in quite a while now. IMHO the remaining Chron columnists are mostly second-rate politically-correct hacks. There's…
Nick Hoppe is the son of Art Hoppe, who was a San Francisco Chronicle columnist for many years. Nick is a Bay Area businessman who previously also wrote a weekly column for the Chron, but as the paper has steadily reduced it's print content he is no…
I'll give @wxman123 (weatherman?) a lot of credit for this- he's open to a reasonable discussion of an issue, without name-calling and derisive labels. That's pretty rare these days, unfortunately.
"rigorous honesty is required"
@BenWP- Are you sure about that? I've checked with our chief executive officer and he just laughed and said it was the first that he'd heard of anything like that.
@sma3- I have a good friend, a retired pulmonary doc who was Chief of Medicine at a San Francisco hospital in the Sutter Health Care empire. He could have written your comments on the state of our current medical care system.
My own primary care do…
Those logs are redwood, which I'm guessing may tolerate storage better than other softwoods such as fir or pine. I notice a water tanker there also... spraying water on felled logs is frequently used to keep them in decent condition. Perhaps the tru…
Speaking of airplane safety, it looks as if the same degree of rigorous evaluation is being used on hydroxychloroquine as was used on the 737 Max. Should be OK.
@Derf: I'm pretty much out of the market at the present time, as we are in our 80s and have very decent pension and SS income. In our building phase we did very well with American Funds, and Washington Mutual in particular. What little we have in th…
