capslock is your friennnnnnd
ain't you supposed to be investing other peoples $$ in ETFs... or is it WTFs?
i don't use ETF's for most clients. and this persecution over my free choice not use capslock dragged me away from that...
What is the fourth option?!? If I blur my eyes a bit I can almost make it out!
:D
(I told you I'm married.....)
LOOKOUT, IT'S A FREE COUNTRY. YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU LIKE. NOW GO TAKE YOUR MEDS!
Ok..Is it just me or has someone taken over Ali's account?

But seriously, how about learning how to use the Shift key when necessary? Capitalizationnnnnnnn... that's your friend.

It wasn't necessary
there. :p
Eh, never mind, that's how it's written on the keyboard.

capitalization is the
least important of all grammatical conventions.
fuck em if they can't recognize 2 spaces after a period.
that's what I always say.
you can talk all you want about capitalization, but P/E ratio is much more important.
aye. that it is. that it is. and if you're a long termer, you might want to look at some of the P/E's out there right now.
Buy GOOG today while it's still a full third off its bubbly price. It won't be for long... the reasons people are dropping it are inconsequential.
Oh it's like 38. Which is teeny for Google. This one you buy for its current price over its future earnings. Which will double twice more, t'ain't nothing stopping her.
could be. not my style though. i never buy based on future numbers. i'm a value guy.
What do you think of gold and special minerals funds?
ha ha.
you started a mock thread, and it's turning into you having to give investment advice.
ha ha.
ah, you can't steer a thread.
i think gold looks pretty. but i'm partial to platinum.
to be serious though, i have a long term focus with investments. typically commodities are not good long term investments. they are excellent for trading in the short term, but can leave you flat or down over the long haul.
gold? everyone loves it now, but look at the track record if you'd purchased it 20 years ago.
oil? same story.
real estate? can find some great stories there, but look at the longer term.
Compare those to a decent conservative growth fund.
items that are supply and demand oriented rather than profit and loss driven tend to cause problems if held long term. they're too easily manipulated by current events and emotions. a case can be made for using a well managed fund that specializes in those areas, but even then be careful of your exposure.
FWIW - as always remember that past performance is not an indicator of future results.
What do you think of gold and special minerals funds?
I think I have some of those special minerals in my water. :::shrug:::
LOL, Serp!
Shawnee, I agree -- not a necessity, but a valid option.
So how much is steering a thread like pushing a rope?
UG...I think it was correct...you typed it as it shows on the keyboard. Makes perfect sense; my attempt at being clever dashed to bits by a damn keyboard. :)
