Thank you sma3! We are spending this summer in northwest again. I have no quiet place I can be before noon eastern (9 am here). Library opens at 9am! I've set up a session for Friday, 2 pm eastern ... posted on board. But, if that does not work, just call me at 805 468 9599 ... if I can pick up I will. Hopefully, can pick a day where you can attended from noon on. Very happy to do! c

And, speaking for myself at least, the belief that as we continue to improve the Premium site, more folks will subscribe.
Bolstered by feedback (from folks in/from the business) like:

@davidrmoran. Thank you! "... if it ever adds $10k cagr graphing over easily adjustable time periods ..." Adding holdings data is next big improvement planned, then after that plotting!
@Sven. Thank you! Can't tell you how many times page/styling works in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, but not in Safari ... always a litmus test of the robustness of a site. I will add recovery time to the real-time calcs in Portfolio, as well as MAXDD Date …
I believe negative rates on treasury bills would represent another form of federal tax. Basically, a tax on principal. It would also be like an er (expense ratio, fee) like mutual funds charge, even when holding cash.
Hi Ben.
Sorry for any hassle.
Please use the Refine button above the Results table to update/edit existing Portfolios or add new ones. It is effectively the "go back" button.
Yes, the Results table shows up on same page, but you can open as many …
AlphaCentric's record as an advisor is pretty awful. IOFIX is only fund with any kind of AUM. Catalyst's record is not much better (though MBXIX is interesting). Both families are associated with Jerry Szilagyi. I honestly wish Garrison Point could …
