I wish there were two move ins

Or have the lefties on this board become totally silent since the Mueller report came out?

From my viewpoint, moderate

crossed my mind also

I stopped trying to call tops and bottoms many years ago. Only rebalancing I am doing is sticking to periodic rebalancing rules established between client and me at inception of the relationship. Often very difficult to keep the emotion out of investing. Many a client became quite nervous in mid December only to discover 6 weeks later that all was as had been.

So , just for clarification, you are stating that you have replied to my question regarding the second derivative? You have not. But nice try. Please point out the answer or simply repeat it. Either should be a piece of cake for a mental giant such as yourself.

That was my point exactly. They have been largely, in recent years, terrible. ( re read the calpers article) And for pre-emptive purposes, let me suggest that you avoid the following terminology in your efforts to impress everybody on this board. Many of us are familiar with standard deviation, alpha, beta, Sharpe ratio ,R-squared, upside capture ratio, downside capture ratio, maximum drawdown, etc etc. when it comes to measuring performance and volatility. Just wanted to save you some of your valuable, high priced time.

NO you have never answered it. And I know why and so do you. If you have answered it, humor this average Joe who is way below your intellectual level and explain it to me.

The emboldened says NOTHING,NADA,ZILCH about being a failed strategy. It simply says that there are lots of hedge funds that are lousy at what they do. Nice try, but you chose to interpret something that wasn't there. Sort of like the Mueller investigation. Additionally, your irrelevant reply to the question was something that did not even attempt to address the question but rather to try and portray yourself as more knowledgeable, more sophisticated, more enlightened. But, everyone is used to that by now.

SHOW ME where I said hedge funds was a failed strategy.

I have spent plenty of time with a large number of people who do what you purport to do. I have lots of communication with the largest asset manager in the world who handles some of my accounts that demand/require an institutional presence. That's one of the reasons I know your allegation that retail money can't compare to institutional money is far from being accurate in many instances. I find it VERY ironic that you speak of my ego but continue to tell me how much smarter you are than I am.

I stand by that. You DON't have the slightest idea what I do. You THINK you do just as you think you know everything connected with the financial world. I know better than that and so do you. You made a broad generalization about retail stock brokers and applied that to me. Continue with your assumptions and suppositions. I enjoy it.

I didn't miss it. Now its your turn. How does the second derivative factor into your investment decision making ( This is the fourth request and the continued avoidance tells everyone all they need to know) Hey, why don't you tell me you wont answer unless I put up some money?

Is the market already discounting a recession. If so, is it discounting a mile recession?

I got the job I was seeking and am very glad I have it. By the way, it's pretty tough to call yourself an asset manager if you are incapable of investing the money yourself instead of having someone else do it.

And its not my fault you were incapable of securing a securities license.

The yield curve inverted on Friday. Does this imply a recession is close at hand? If so, how mild/severe will it be?

10 stocks chosen from listing on major exchanges with credible daily volume. Get off the money thing. It's a very weak curtain behind which you are trying to hide and it appears as though everyone sees through it.

He feels his analysis is worth billions. Only problem is everyone else discounts those figures due to delusions of grandeur.

Put your stock recommendations up and prove your contention.

Really? Just a small bit of info for you. Several years ago, two ladies who were Ivy League grads decided to join a major firm in Chicago. They didn't last long because they could not pass the series 7 securities exam. How do you know whether or not I know my mutual funds, ETF, taxes, and estate planning? For all of us who are not enlightened, please tell us what you bring to the table that makes your value so much higher? All you are doing is, once again, reinforcing the democrat mantra of "I am smarter than you are" which has been disproven via the 2016 Presidential election, the Kavanaugh hearings, and the extremely farcical Mueller "investigation". Generally speaking, the more frequently one cries about being smarter than someone else, he is actually trying to convince himself of that contention.

there is one very easy way to help prove that contention. I must once again suggest you look at Long Term Capital Management and tell me how the "smart money" did.

Maybe we could ask Michelle Obama?
