<description><![CDATA[This fund has a good long term performance record.   One thing I would like to point out: I research how funds do under certain conditions and this one is an excellent one to load up on after a correction or bear market.   Look at 2003 after a couple of not so good years for the market - up 77%.   By the same token if the market has been going like wildfire, it may take more of a hit on a correction than some other funds.   A couple of funds I like for steady returns and hold up well on downturns are OAKGX and FAIRX.   Another interesting fund if you want to hedge a little is the fairly new Leeb Focus Fund - LCMFX.   Stephen Leeb likes Warren Buffet type stocks (Ko, GE, JNJ) combined with hedging in Gold, Oil and other commodities.   He has made some major calls.   He was telling people to get into Oil 3 years ago.   He thinks alternative energy, water related stocks, China/india will do well also going forward.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The drop today of $2.61 equal to minus 7.15% almost caused me to need to change my skivvies.   However, calmer due diligence reveals the fund distributed today $3.245 per share equal to 9.5% of yesterdays close. So, we came out with a nominal and matchin gain of 2% or so on today's S&P gain of 1.50%.   

Taxable incomes, but all comes out in the end. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Buckingham does not put all his eggs in one basket.   He knows he is playing with dicey situations, and one or more will be a disaster.   i used to subscribe to the newsletter,but I could not diversify enough and got stung.   However, I have more than may up for the loss with the fund.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I have been following The Prudent Speculator for couple of years and it looks like this guy knows what he is talking about.   The only concern that I have is this statement in their profile "The fund may engage in leveraging and selling securities short."

We have seen where that leads...]]></description>
