patron, Re: fftyx Great find. Wonder what he is doing with AT&T in the fund - sticks out like a sore thumb. <g> I may leg into this one. Joan

Yes, it's nice to see. Times seem to finally be a-changing ... <g> When the recognition wave hits, it ain't going to be pretty.

patron, Called Fidelity since I have a 401k plan there and of course this fund is not offered as part of the package. I can move the plan to an IRA and asked how to do that. The guy asked me why I wanted to move and told him I liked the top ten holdings of the FFTYX fund. He said they decided to have an unconventional fund available for customers. <ggg> They could be trying to compete with the Safe Harbor fund at Prudent Bear. Want to see what else the manager has in the fund before I move some money in there. Joan

patron, I looked at the rest of the holdings in the FFTYX fund and am not buying. It looks like the only reason the gold stocks are part of the top ten holdings is because of the run they have had. You can look at his holdings at the Fidelity site and certainly is heavy on drillers, gassers, and oil, but he has other stuff that is not very interesting. Personally think the Safe Harbor fund from Prudent Bear is more interesting. This guy closely tracks the S&P over time. Joan
