One Way to Measure Bob's Call

Since Bob changed his allocation almost at the beginning of the year I intend to measure Bob's call at two points in time. One around July 1st, 2000 that gives one a six month comparison and the other around January 1st, 2001 which gives one a one year overview of the call. That will determine, in my mind, whether or not Bob's call was correct. (I sense a lot of disappointment on this board in the past few weeks but we seem to forget all the money we have made by following Bob's advice over the years.)

Markets are not measured in minutes, hours or days,(maybe that is the old way of thinking), but in weeks and months. Further, (I was going to say we should all keep in mind but I am not), I will keep in mind that by following Bob's advice for the past 15 years or so I have done better than following my own advice and by following Bob's advice I have gotten to critical mass and may not have, at this point in time, if I had followed my own advice.

P.S. In 1989, Bob recommended Vodafone, at that time called Racal Telecom, a small start up cellular company. Please read the article in today's Barron's if you wish to see how that investment advice turned out.
