  • Historically a good manager. Do you know how many of his old team are joining him and if the funds will be available via "platforms" ? (Vanguard, Fidelity, etc.)
  • I don't know about his team. The fund will be available on the different platforms at the end of the month
  • Thank you for the info. Invested with him (Tradewinds Global) but sold when he left for greener pastures. Looking forward to learning about his new team and new offering. Mr. Iben was not a closet indexer and was a value guy. Hope Mr. Iben still has his wits and mojo after his Vinik adventure.

    fyi, kggax with mr.iben is now available as both a no load fund and ntf at schwab. i just started a position there today ad will be jumping in with both feet tomorrow. a great chance to get in early with a great PM when assets are extremely low.
  • For what interest it holds, we wrote a bit about Mr. Iben's fund in a "Launch Alert" feature in the December commentary.
