Some other possibilites are: BRUFX (NAV around $400.00 per share and I believe you have to buy directly from the transfer agent. A bit more of a hybrid fund with microcaps), WAMVX, WMICX, SCMVX, H…
I have AVALX in non-taxable account. I also have WSCVX, SATMX, and PVFIX in taxable accounts.
I also have TMCGX and BRMCX (which is supposed to be reorganized in June 2012 into BRUSX if approved by BRMCX shareholders). I sold PREOX to buy BRMCX…
I had a few shares TMX for a couple of years until America Movil made a tender offer for it for cash some months ago. I accepted since there wasn't much in the way of alternatives or face delisting. I think I received my proceeds in early last No…

While the filing doesn't address tax related issues, I suspect that it will be non-taxable as I have held funds that reorganized and the transaction was non-taxable.
What is not posted will the Aggressive Investors 1 be more like Aggressive Investo…
