Re: New interview with Craig Rowland
… However, is it not in this forum that Craig stated that he was no longer a Permanent Portfolio participant? I wonder if you’re thinking of PointedStick, a well-respected, intelligent and long-time member. He went all stocks. I don’t recall Craigr ever changing course. No. Definitely thinking of C...

Re: New interview with Craig Rowland
I did listen to it twice and agree that it was excellent. However, is it not in this forum that Craig stated that he was no longer a Permanent Portfolio participant? He came across in the interview that he'd been a consistent True Believer, not addressing at all when and why he had strayed. And, inf...

My fiance and I just slept through most of the first day or so we've been here. Other than the air raid sirens, there isn't any obvious sign of war in the region we are currently in.

Re: Putin interview
I have been rather disappointed. Snyder is right in one thing: Putin's historical narrative is kind of bullshit and heavily relies on selecting certain points of time as yardsticks. Of course Snyder is performing the exact same maneuver when he talks about the inviolability of sovereign states' bor...

Re: Putin interview
Overall, I understand what he wanted to say. I think they are tired of being pushed around and decided it was time to draw the line in Ukraine. That doesn't mean I like or support it, but I see their point. The fact that the breakup of the USSR did not lead to European peace and demilitarization is...

.. I made my only investments now 21 years ago in January 2003. All investments since have gone into cash. .. Seems like I would have been much better off over these last 21 years by having done the exact opposite. Having the bulk in Growth and giving away the Value funds. Opposite: I thought you w...

Re: This is the best time in 45 years to invest in the Permanent Portfolio
That is always a tricky comparison as all things have to be equal. So higher than previous all-time high for the exact same time period?
And, is that 7.7% higher 7.7% added to the previous return? Or 7.7% of the previous return?
