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 would hope that we do not become distracted and lose sight of the fundamentally dishonest existence of this thread and it's corrosive influence on the long-observed rules of MFO.
If Old Skeet is allowed to have two posting names and two posting "…
Sorry- corruption and sneaky dishonesty needs to be called.
Watching a poster have two accounts and to pretend to be two different people is just another reflection of the complete lack of honesty and moral scruple emanating from and endorsed by th…
FWIW, I still maintain that there should be a separate, distinct, "Political Discussions" category, and that category should not be included in "Discussions+".
Then no one who did not deliberately choose that category would ever need to see it.
So…
Anna's link is exactly the same as choosing "Fund Discussions" in the "Categories" column at the top left of every page. Nothing new there.
That solution is EXACTLY what so many people here have been pointing out for several YEARS now: If you don't…
With respect to "CecilJK" his profile shows that he Joined in April 2011, since that date has had only 46 visits, 10 comments (the last was in 2017), and started only one discussion: today at 6:30PM.
Let's see, now- 46 visits in nine years, yet "at…
"BREAKING: Hill Republicans suspect disputed anonymous story re Trump disrespecting fallen war vets was planted by Biden campaign"
You mean that story that Fox News found to be accurate? Maybe they helped "plant it" too.

"president-trump-thinks-hes-the-smartest-person-in-the-room"
Well, considering the type of people that he chooses for advisors I suppose that could sometimes be true.
It's been my personal observation that the elections of Obama actually lit the torches of at least some of the Trumpsters. Having a black person as president seems to have been one step too many, and pushed them over the edge. Their entire "value sy…
And there you have it: the defining snapshot of this man's perverted value system. And folks like OS want a person like that as the leader of this country.
Not much else to say here.
Wile it's true that the individual categories are clearly marked, the "Discussions +" section intermixes all of the categories. If "Off-Topic" were excluded from "Discussions +", no one would ever have to look at anything that they didn't want to. T…
I guess that there's something that I'm not understanding on this. If the "Off Topic" section were excluded from the "Discussions +" compilation then the only way to access Off Topic would be to deliberately click on it. Is that doable?
Yes, Jon was a favorite also. He is now retired- for a while he also posted an occasional on-line commentary, but he hasn't done that in quite a while now. IMHO the remaining Chron columnists are mostly second-rate politically-correct hacks. There's…
Nick Hoppe is the son of Art Hoppe, who was a San Francisco Chronicle columnist for many years. Nick is a Bay Area businessman who previously also wrote a weekly column for the Chron, but as the paper has steadily reduced it's print content he is no…
I'll give @wxman123 (weatherman?) a lot of credit for this- he's open to a reasonable discussion of an issue, without name-calling and derisive labels. That's pretty rare these days, unfortunately.
"rigorous honesty is required"
@BenWP- Are you sure about that? I've checked with our chief executive officer and he just laughed and said it was the first that he'd heard of anything like that.
