i've placed some retirement $ in hussman's two funds and am very comfortable with his careful approach to risk. in those rising markets when things seem overly speculative according to his studies, he will certainly underperform, due to his hedging, as in the last year or so. on the other hand, in the 00-03 bear market he did stellar, actually making about 50% while the SP500 lost about 50%. over the entire bull/bear cycle i expect he will handily beat most mutual funds; but one has to understand there will be periods - sometimes long ones - where it will underperform. in times of likely bear markets i would especially recommend his fund (hsgfx). -j
