A while back I decided to open a second brokerage account for institutional diversification. I already had one with Fidelity and started a second with T-Rowe Price. I needed to add money to stocks so decided to buy a new fund through them. The new Permanent Portfolio book wasn't out yet and I might have made the decision somewhat hastily. I bought ticker PREIX: http://quote.morningstar.com/fund/f.aspx?t=PREIX
Would be curious to have other fellow PP'ers take a look and let me know if you think it's suitable for the HBPP?

Re: PREIX
The ER is a bit on the high side for a boring ol' S&P500 index, but otherwise it looks fine.
Human behavior is economic behavior. The particulars may vary, but competition for limited resources remains a constant.

Re: PREIX
I'll second this. Expense ratio a little high compared to other index funds, but still well below a typical mutual fund.Pointedstick wrote: The ER is a bit on the high side for a boring ol' S&P500 index, but otherwise it looks fine.

Re: PREIX
Definitely. That's why I prefer the stock (TROW variable portfolio) to their products.MangoMan wrote: T Rowe Price is a great company to work with; friendly, knowledgeable phone reps and a wide choice of funds. But they are indeed generally more expensive across the board vs similar funds at Vanguard.
