RULE#6

After investing in PRPFX back in January I finally got around to reading "Fail-Safe Investing" while on a return flight from Hong Kong.
I thought a sentence in the chapter on RULE#6 was very interesting....
"The System that has worked perfectly up to now will go sour when you stake your money on it"
Then I checked my portfolio and for those of you who are distressed about the recent and YTD performance of PRPFX I have to confess it is all my fault.

PRPFX is just fine..
Times are hard. What's done better past 12 mos or for that matter YTD? Well, I can think of one VWINX, up 3.3% YTD.
I have not seen any results YTD for classic pp, anyone? I don't read all the posts so forgive me.

I started an HBPP account at the beginning of February: up 10 per cent to date.

"I started an HBPP account at the beginning of February: up 10 per cent to date."
That's nice to know. I plan on starting my own HBPP in my retirement account as soon as my PRPFX sale is complete.
Will stay with PRPFX in my non-retirement account but converting 10% to EDV as Medium Tex has suggested.
Will be interesting to compare the two.

I also have a position in PRPFX started at the same time. The performance disparity is...depressing.
