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.
I was not sure if this was a closed thread since not one comment had appeared until now. But since I see it is open I would like to concur with John N. and thank David for providing this forum. I am sure it takes plenty of time and energy to sustai…
Even if the cost is acceptable San Francisco is not the jewel it used to be.we visit the city by boat and walk for miles,,, all over the place..we visit less often these days.many problems.
It really amazes me that folks like JoJo read about the what the repuglicans have wrought and can't defend it. But they call the messenger a "liberal." You guys are amazing.
Thank you JoJo26. You do know of course that liberals want to save capitalism from itself. Left to their own devices,,,,,, capitalists, with their overwhelming greed, would destroy themselves.. But this thread is not about us liberals,,,,, it's abo…
@LewisBraham. Agree with you. This guy just unleashed them. But what is really scary is what happens when a smart guy plays that cohort effectively. Nonetheless,,, liberals, however ineffectual, are not bent on destruction of our institutions. They …
@Catch22......I sorry.i thought that phrase was common usage among those in the opposition. My kids say it all the time. It's such a natural response to a article about some poor guy who is a victim of orange monster.
@Catch. Surely you have seen the orange monster blame President Obama for everything,,,,, it's so common that the phrase has become part of our regular sarcastic vocabulary. Example,,, traffic is horrible on I-80. two hour delay. "Thanks Obama." C…
@Davidmoran. As long as the Republican cohort HATE AND FEAR PEOPLE OF COLOR more than they care about their own interests our nation's troubles will just get worse. I know a trump voter,,, he told me he voted for him " because he was sick of white p…
@JohnN,@Crash. Gentlemen,,,, with all due respect, lumping the far left and far right in the same breath with regards to losing our democracy is a total crock. THERE IS NO EQUIVALENCY! If you believe that,,,, well I guess you have your eyes wide shu…
I think teddy owes us an apology. Right now there are two excellent threads going that show that our current and future investments are threatened by the orange man and his self inflicted errors. Or is he just doing what his handler Vlad tells him t…
Interesting in that for my kids who are at the beginning of excellent careers massive disruptions to the markets would spell opportunity. For their old man,,, sequence of risk danger.
Thanks for sharing gentlemen. My CD sleeve has grown perhaps too large though I count it as F.I. The self induced trade war and other self induced shocks have turned this conservative investor even more risk adverse. The biggest risk to my investmen…
Teddy,,,what does this have to do with mutual funds?or: if you can flame a contributor,,,, why can't the many discuss someone who impacts the value of our mutual funds? Ban me Teddy boy!
Win-win. Ted stops reading any thread that bothers his sensibilities. After all,,,, most of Teddy's links get little or no action but they don't get censored for cluttering up the place beyond belief. Everyone votes with their feet, so to speak.
@ted.. threatening to ban a valued and respected contributor for the crime of discussing treason makes you complicit in treason as well.or aiding and abetting a traitor. HAVE YOU NO DECENCY?
One of the issues I have had with this board is that it rarely has any discussions,,,,, merely thousands of links that rarely stimulate any dialogue. Yesterday was a oddity, a real discussion, about a topic that surely will impact every single inve…
@rforno.you might remember that the Watergate investigation was not going anywhere until such time as Nixon's own party suddenly said something like enough is enough. And then he resigned. One can hope anyway. I would like to send copies of Profiles…
@Old_Joe. the miserable bunch of sots are, in this concern,, are virtually the entirety of the REPUGLICAN party. When the history of this affair is written,,,,the shame is all theirs.please don't lump of all Congress in one bucket. One party may be …
Proud of all my MFO brothers and sisters for all these posts. From this day forward EVERY REPUGLICAN is complicit with the treasonous traitor. I don't know any of them to speak to but if I did I would ask in plain language if they will change parti…
@ted. With all due respect,,, you should NEVER,EVER, comment on some other dudes choice of topics. You, the self styled linkster have started literally thousands of threads that were totally ignored. At least a few folks cared enough about this topi…
@Old_Joe. Why would V.F. use that word to describe a fund manager? Mr.Minerd is not a lawyer nor a money lender. Minerd wrote an option piece about the market. Hardly makes him a bad man. What do you suppose V.F. really meant? It sure wasn't a comp…
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/joe-biden-apologizes-for-using-anti-semitic-term/
You can find any number of definitions for that word but believe me,,, it is offensive. Mr. Minerd is not a lawyer. Calling him a shyster was hardly called for in this s…
