Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
West Wing had THE best writers! And a marvelous cast. I recall some guest stars who showed up for just a few or several shows. One was the Protagonist in "Weeds." I roared laughing at those episodes. MARY LOUISE PARKER. So full of physical pulchritu…
Morning rituals? I get up at the crack of noon. Two cups of coffee. Sometimes Starbucks in the coffee maker, sometimes Keurig. My wife does the buying. After the third day, the leftover stuff is thick as syrup. Just right. Take it hot and black. ("…
...With the ballooning $38 trillion dollars deficit...
Confused here. I thought the Big Obscene Bill was going to raise the deficit over 10 years to $7.1 trillion.
Which is a doubling of the current state of affairs? (July, '25.) So we were told, e…
Leo McGarry was Chief of Staff, I recall. The Veep on the show was, according to the script, not well liked. But a fine actor; he was one of the student clowns on the road-trip in Animal House!

The Orange regime continues to flood the zone with all sorts of varied illegal, shocking, norm-busting, unconstitutional junk. The news we see or hear can get only so much of it across. There are only so many hours in a day. Today I learned that the…
It would be interesting to know exactly how the U.S. dollar impacted performance.
@Crash,
I was able to access this article via Mark's link.
Thank you. Got it now.

Bondi also wants the voter’s record from Governor Walz. So her ICE agents go shoot those who voted non-GOP. She acts like an enforcer in the mob.

We literally can not take any statements or claims made by this administration at face value.
Proven time and time again - on a daily basis, I would say. No legitimacy.
You said it better than I'd have done.
@Mona ya, I suppose that was smart, economically. China and the EU. But Modi is heavy-handed, squashing dissent and limiting human rights. I can't put money in India or China, Russia, Belarus, Israel.... The usual suspects. And these days, a tin pot…
FBP has lately been too volatile for me. Last week it was up over 7% in a day. Then, splat, way down. And today? Up +5.22%. I am indeed in the black here, but these gyrations have brought me to a decision: when I reach a 10% profit, I'll be out. I'm…
I have concluded, until all is uncovered, that I could probably find many of the current ICE/other thugs among the June 6th Capitol thugs. If so, cover the faces so no one knows. Paranoid, perhaps but uncover the faces and change my mind.

I remember the good old days when I seriously looked at things like PE ratios and rightly moved money in the late 90s and in 2007. But I haven't been able to brag since then and find myself sitting at age 77 with lots of dollars and not e…
But the PMs are just so VERY overbought now... What's a mother to do? Same with another of my prospects: EWC (Canada.) I bet EWC rose on the heels of the Carney speech in Davos? But it was already doing well. Canada has banks, rocks, trees, oil/gas …
Cheryl Hines? Her mistake was marrying RFK, Jr. Should have just stuck to the acting gig. She was great in "Rescue Me."
