You can purchase QSPIX at Scottrade for a minimum investment of $100.00 plus $17 T/F in taxable and non-taxable accounts. There was a lot of discussion concerning QSPIX on Bogleheads concerning the pro/cons of the fund especially since it is to clo…

When the proxy is actually issued, investors should get a better idea of of what the reorganization will affect. In order not to surprise investors/readers when the check their email or when investors open their envelopes, I posted the link.…
Last year, the index funds posted their estimated distributions in the second announcement, which in this case will probably be December 11 if history remains the same.

I still maintain taxable and non-taxable positions in BRUSX. Sure, the fund has some of bad years, but WSCVX also had some good years in the beginning;however, the last several years have not been so fantastic in comparison as value has not been do…
@PRESSmUP
My thinking is more like yours (except it sounds like you are exiting Fairholme permanently where I am not exiting TMCGX permanently) in that I will also sell my TMCGX; however, I can go back and buy TMCGX again since Turner permits four …
According to Fairholme PDF, the payout was due to:
"... We are pleased that our investment in AIG generated over $2 billion in gains for shareholders and are optimistic for similar outcomes in the current portfolio holdings based on our estimates o…
I have owned BRUFX for years in a regular account. Bought into it when NAV was about $288 per share.
I thought there were some states that would not permit you to buy BRUFX?
@VintageFreak,
While George Schipp manages the Sterling Capital Special Opportunities Fund, the bigger question will be will Sterling allow an exchange from one grandfathered Stratton Fund, which will be an "I" class fund, to another Sterling "I" c…
@heezsafe
I noticed the spillback information prior to the CG information being posted. I am glad I don't have to deal with the accounting for that.
Years ago I held Fairholme. After I filed my taxes, months later, I received an amended tax 1099…

The reorganization is suppose to occur around 11/16/15 as per this filing, http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/889284/000119312515299132/d11216d497.htm
Personally, I have footholds or at least meet the required minimum investments in PRWCX, JANIX (non-taxable account) and PRHSX as well as some others.
While I hold all three Primecap Odyssey Funds since I cannot purchase VPCCX and VHCAX, I would e…

@Valet,
The GainTrain, myself and others are just trying to keep up with the number of mutual funds in your database. I do enjoy your "In the Doghouse!" feature.
@InformalEconomist
Subscribers have until 10/30 (had until 10/30 when submitted their subscriptions) to act upon their allotment so I suspect more people are in the pipeline to do so. I transferred my money in on 10/20, but had thoughts about wait…
@briboe69
Congratulations! That was partially the reason why I initially called GP was to make sure my email address was legible and correct since I scanned it into a PDF file then emailed it. My handwriting is not the best.
I received my full …
@briboe69
I believe it may have been based on the first name, but I am not positive. GP individual told me a story that they received a telephone call and was told the same thing by a subscriber about not hearing anything about their subscription.…
I just called GP (not the transfer agent). Emails are going out alphabetically to those subscribers awarded allotments. It is a slow process, but emails will be going out during the evening, probably even late to all awarded subscribers.

The other global micro cap fund is ALPS | Metis Global Micro Cap Fund with A, C, and I classes.

@LLJB
I agree with you. My reasons for subscribing were:
1. There is only one other Global Micro Cap Fund (with a load) besides GP's fund;
2. This is going to be a growth oriented micro cap fund; there are not many established micro cap funds wit…

The primary reason I am going to open my account with GP (besides my other four accounts are there) is that once I fund my initial Global Micro Cap position allotment, I am going to initiate a systematic investment plan. If I don't ini…
