Re: Mar A Lago documents
And, have any MSM outlets reported on the fizzle like they did the sizzle? I haven’t seen it. The Washington Post actually did do a backhanded article admitting that there was nothing there. Just standard outgoing presidential memorabilia. Of course, they still had to chalk it up to the Donald bein...

Good timing of the raid and sensational story versus the actual, though, vis a vis the elections.

Re: TIPS
As I see it (based on applicable vanguard funds): * ST TIPS are doing better (less bad) than short term treasuries this year * Federal Money Market doing better than ST TIPS this year * All nowhere near keeping up with inflation * For the past 5 years, ST TIPS wins. Over 100% higher return than it's...

Re: Mask wearing / Returning shopping carts

Re: TBills as "the best horse at the glue factory?"
Why do BHs love them...they eliminate inflation risk which is a HUGE benefit. And yet I see that iShares TIPS Bond ETF is down 17.78% YTD. And yes, I get that the performance of a fund is different than buying a bond and holding it to maturity. Still, that just looks to me like another asset that i...

Re: Commodity Stocks Getting Creamed

Re: PP YTD performance - was it the worst ever?
I’ve stuck with ~50% stocks while incorporating LTT and Gold
Definitely would be better off financially if I had stuck with more the 65/35 ish I back before (TSM/SCV/INTL;TBM)
But, slept a lot better
So, I figure it worked out ok and I learned a thing or two

Re: Gold will rise when Fed stops raising interest rates?
Gold is up today! (20220916)
I predict it won’t go down for at least two day
Maybe more, but hard to project out that far

9/13 -- why I try not to figure out the market
9/13: August inflation higher than expected
Results:
TIPS funds down
LTT up
Huh?
Although only minimally -- just a rounding error vs stocks down 4%

Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II
What makes you guys think any of the news on this is accurate? So much fake news everywhere, and well, Pravda. I’m not sure if you’re referring to the Russians falling back or the media thing. If it’s the fallback, we can’t know for sure. Have to wait and see. Even the market reacted to it today — ...
