I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.
@Mark was right !!!

shoot, I posted only after (I thought) I had checked for this. plus or minus one day and then plus or minus two days, both ends, just to see if it was actually date delta.
Obviously I did not register the results correctly. This is reassuring; tnx.
something funky going on, but I bet it is clearly explicable somewhere by someone
VTSMX $10k appreciation since last Dec 07, not so long ago:
M*: $11,110
SC: $11,368
Thanks. Takes a steadier mousing hand than I have to get to a particular day easily.
But the results are quite different! (Unless I am making a mistake.)
Stockchart shows performance since 4/25/2005 to date for JABAX of +208% (rounded up) and VW…
JABAX outperforms VWELX, OAKBX, FPURX, FPACX, and DODBX if you go back to the day Pinto walked in the Janus door, 14y and 5mos ago. It's a mysterious miracle of added value.
This is per M*; see below.
I am lost now in your sub-period cherrypicking, but for 5y/4y/3y/2y/1y/ytd and 3mos JABAX has either matched (else very very close) or outperformed both the value-oriented (and excellent) VWELX and the growth-oriented FPURX. I wonder why. Your 'anal…
Maybe.
Let us say mom or daughter, not just you or I, graphs M* $10k growth of VWELX, JABAX, and FPURX for 3 and 5 years.
(She did so because she read an article advising always to do that, not shorter terms.)
What does she see? Well, someone s…
hmm, M* from start of May 05 to date appears to show small but nontrivial outperformance the other way, $10k growing to $21,269 for VWELX vs $22,978 for JABAX. - ?
Yes, Janus (the company, too, TBailey's penchant, then JCraig) has usually, albeit s…
@Art,
It is a fork. You may be being swayed by recency, but recent conditions are telling and presumably lasting, sure.
It took me a long time to get my mind around leaving JABAX and the original Fido Asst Mgr (and several others, including FPACX…
meanwhile, some sense and math on ultra-wealth taxation

My guess - There's more room to the top side than the bottom!
I am coming to think the same. No upward explosiveness, probably, but fundamentals are too ongoingly consistent, and boomer greed abides (and returns elsewhere are so low), that I am not …

I hope FD1xxx sticks around and contributes data and informed experience here

wrong about the fed, from a wrongheaded sense of emergency

Trump thinks that federal debt is like a business loan, which you can pay down early to take advantage of lower …
PK tweet just now, and yes, the stupidity is most striking, and more important it is so from advisers:
Quite aside from his demand that the Fed adopt emergency stimulus measures when the unemployment rate is 3.7%, Trump's tirade included the idea t…
for closeups (not toooo close) smartphones really shine
it is distance work (coyote in the far field, soccer kids at the other goal) where they go grainy
just go to M* and look at the cagr graph for a month

tnx; I looked for that M* info but could not find it; have bookmarked M* legacy cagr graphing page (having trouble getting accurate graph of PCI growth on the new site), and wonder how long it the legacy pages will last
