I take it you don't listen to Bob very often. Either that, or your hearing is very selective. You obviously don't realize he has said numerous times that he does not have a crystal ball (e.g., Asian crisis) and you don't appreciate his efforts to manage risk (not calling Oct '99 a buying opportunity). As for July through Dec '98, and money market returns vs. equities, I wonder how many investors weigh the importance of returns for specific 6 month timeframes higher than for 1,3 or 5 years? Bob has always stated that his focus is the long term, and that most of his timing activity is long term in nature also. (If a significant dip in equity values for 6 months is a big concern to you, I wonder why you invest in equities.)

I guess we should all expect that you would miss many of Bob's key points since you haven't bothered to read the charter of this thread either.
