But then I get to buy more bonds and gold! Yipee! :-\
Oh come on Corto, just listen to everyone else on the board telling you how magnificent the PP is.

What would be magnificent for a day like today?
Let me guess...Crystal ball would be magnificent.
Does anybody have one to borrow? :-)

It’s an 8 year pattern for me, not a single day.
Anyway, don’t want to argue as I bought more SCV and TLT today to restore 30/20/15/35.
I am invested in the PP like many others.
Just wish one day we can justify holding.

Yup! Although I worried less (although for record, never all in PP).

And for SCV to beat SP 500 while I'm at it....
