I guess devil's advocate would be that FSMAX took a relative beating the last few years, so any 'last X years' stat is going to look pretty poor. Here's a chart with both equivalent indexes on a 10-year slider. Move the slider at the bottom around and you can see there were plenty of similar...

Two things: First, in settings > UI, you can turn on or off crosshair indicators for fuel/flame belch/chainsaw/grenade when off cooldown. This lets you keep your eyes in the center of the screen (thought they were on by default, but maybe not). Second, you'll develop a 'rotation' focused on...

You've got it right in your edit. Some stuff you might want to look at (last one is most important): Returns If you want to compare two funds over a specific timeframe, using charting tools is a good way to do it--most will automatically normalize the start date so that the growth rates are...

You're not wrong about the data, but I'd be cautious about trending the nominal % gap. The size of the gap you're seeing is really more about how much overall gain the markets experienced in the 20 year span. Compare starting in 1980 to 1995 from the 20 year chart--Nominally, one shows a 1124...

I wanted to address this because I think it's a fair criticism. Let me say I'm also an amateur--I'm not drawing a salary from investing and I work full time in a non-related field. I learned most of what I know in college and at that time made the decision that I didn't have the aptitude or...

Short answer: Confirmed! Sell it. Long answer: Let's talk international markets! Way back when the dinosaurs roamed, there was a theory that holding international made sense as a hedge against the US dollar and US monetary policy. The past 25 years or so has not borne that thesis out. IXUS...

Cash makes it all a bit wonky. This is all from the SEC filing: Form S-1/A Initial share price: Basically, they sold 500k shares for $20M then bought as much Bitcoin as $20M could purchase when trading opened. This had the effect of setting the opening per share price to $40ish. That's...

Thanks for reminding me to play this. Heard good things. Is currently $15 on Steam, which for me was worth it vs free on EGS.

This is the right question to ask, and I think the answer might surprise you. Let's take a look at this Vanguard 2065 fund. Below is its composition (e.g. these are the 4 "funds" that the target retirement fund has picked and their relative weights) So Vanguard funds for - Domestic Stocks...

Interestingly, I read that scene the exact opposite of how you did. At the end of S1, Trevor explicitly asks for "a priest, one who was properly ordained in a church" to create holy water, and then asks him if he knows what to do with it "for the Aspersion", which to me implied that A. the...

I literally (literally) just buy + hold S&P500 across all accounts, but I do enjoy following this thread and reading everyone's thoughts and trades. Certainly prefer more posts to fewer, and that's a great write-up. Congrats on an excellent year.

This thread reminded me that I have a small outstanding variable rate GATE loan. Let's check in on tha--

If you like procedural-type thrillers (Blue Ruin/Green Room, No Country For Old Men, Sicario, Season 1 of Dexter, other Fincher movies) for the procedural/suspense elements specifically, you will enjoy this immensely. Beautifully shot with an amazing Michael Fassbender--was exactly what I was...

If you've got a movie's worth of time to burn, might as well watch the sequel:

Heroic is a top CS team and CadiaN is their in-game leader, awper (two roles that each have an outsize influence on the game—five players on a team, usually only one awper and one IGL) and largely team identity. About a week ago, CadiaN announced he was leaving Heroic and moving to Team Liquid...

Holy shit.

I still doubt the writing holds up to the first series, but that's a fucking good trailer.

Not a financial advisor, but here's one way to look at it: First, we'll assume that even if your company does go under, your pension will be safe. I would expect that to be true or pretty close to true, but worth confirming. Let's start with a more modest risk free rate. 20 year treasuries are...

Warren Ellis, who was the mastermind writer behind the original series and the reason the plot, dialogue, and characters felt so good, got Me Too'ed and removed from the series, if I remember correctly. I think the animation will still be beautiful, but not expecting the writing to stand up...

I was curious about this after reading RT's embarrassing weekend box office write up. They have a ticker showing the last 99 actions (completed pay it forwards + clickthroughs to individual ticket sales), and grabbing a random hundred it was 93 clickthroughs vs. 12 pay it forward tickets from 7...

This first episode was 100% faithful to the manga. I went back and re-read the first volume and they were nearly scene-for-scene, line-for-line identical. The only change was the longer intro introducing Saito up front and pulling back on the more excessive 'comedy' panels. Pretty excited.

That Trust & Betrayal OVA still stands up today as one of the best.

Violent version I like a good R-rated action movie, but the majority of it looks like PG-13 + CG blood splatter (excepting the nose scene). If they'd gone R for Venom 2, I would have watched it.

Fucking... FUCK. What a waste.

Makes you wonder what happened with TLJ.

Curious how you know this? I always wanted to learn more about the Amy Hennig thing. I sort of assumed she left after Uncharted 3's narrative didn't live up to 2's and then 4 was apparently not on a good course, but sounds like you have a deeper knowledge of the happenings. I had always thought...

Disappointed.

The middle part of that trailer is literally footage ripped right from The Princess trailer... which was Hulu? Didn't know you could do that.

You had to be there.

Simu Liu consistently seems to have the worst, most racist takes on just about any topic related to movies. I remember when Bob Chapek called the Shang-Chi release an experiment because it had a 45-day theater-to-D+ release window on an investor call, and Simu Liu responded with something like...

Arkane makes my favorite games. Single-player, first-person, immersive sims with exploration and heavy environmental storytelling are what I want to play until I die. Was absolutely heartbroken about this being a co-op looter shooter or another Left 4 Dead (loved those games, but plenty of...

Haven't played in a while, but when I did you could only get an evolution from a chest. Possible you were only getting normal levels?
