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.
Linkster, dude,
Christ, drop the snot, seriously. Again.
LB of all posters here does NOT have a lot to learn about funds.
Word 2: Dodge&Cox.
Or just go tell Snowball that he too has 'a lot to learn about funds.'

Actual conservatives would not concur in a lot of what you post.

I wonder if conservatives real or fake have better …

I consider myself exceedingly lucky to live in a time of DoubleLine and Pimco. We would have done close to okay in retirement having stayed in my motley of balanced funds and sundry other things, too m…
I was considering selling some as I have some big bills due this fall, not for any other reason. But I may sell other things instead and pay the tax.
Anyway, it would have to do notably worse than SP500 for a good stretch of time for me to rethink…
Ted is the very definition sometimes of 'blowing it out your ass'. General Patton would be ashamed of, and for, him.
Ted, suggest you edit your post, just for the record here.
I'm what used to be called a Woody Guthrie patriot.
@LewisBraham,
I don't disagree with a thing you say --- the automatic glamorization is repulsive, and the pro-sports romance worse than that.
I just thought it was striking to post that about one of the morally clearcut wartime events of the moder…
I have to understand better the Padsim take.
This will be interesting:

also PDI and PTY premia have risen even above their lofty levels, so am going to sell some of that too

Thanks; this is helpful and patient. I did mean net. I was trying to (mis)understand the Padsim / Compare processes (first of the Rand cites) and customer decisionmaking effects. At the risk of seeming to just be googling further at you:

For years I have fearfully held PDI, PTY, and PCI, all of which are regularly debunked for high premia --- fwiw. (I guess PCI less than the others.) PDI and to a lesser extent PTY have had spectacular results.
@msf,
Since insurance premiums are obviously, so obviously, a subset of overall healthcare costs, I've been nonresponsive to your entreaties about what I mean, as I have been puzzling how you are not just doing high-grade trolling. But I refuse to…
