Hey BB,

All Tech and No Diversity Is Bad
In the 20-, 30-, or 40-year time frame of the 401(k), the all-tech-all-the-time portfolio might make you a fortune. And yet, if you had done the same exercise in 1970 with a view toward retiring now, your portfolio of tech blue chips included the following:

Digital Equipment, now part of underperforming Compaq (CPQ)

Sperry and Burroughs, which merged to form underperforming Unisys (UIS)

Fairchild (FA), Polaroid (PRD), Xerox (XRX)


that sounds like the AS portfolio <ggg>

OK AS, I'm just funnin with ya. You're probably wipin my but in the market, OK. <ggg>
