So it has to be one or the other? YOU sound confused sir

Do you not understand that hardcore liberals will always vote dem and "true" (lol) conservatives will always vote republican?

The teabaggers here were supremely confident Obama would lose in 2012 And they think running a more conservative candidate will do the trick in 2016. Especially against Hillary. LOL Not a chance. I'm not even a Hillary supporter just keeping it real

Fair enough.   Have you looked into unconstrained fixed income for any of your clients? It might be several years away before retail catches on, its picking up steam on the institutional side.   Essentially, its a "best ideas" portfolio that's benchmark agnostic. Investment grade, high yield/junk, mbs, bank loans, all durations, domestic, emerging, etc. Way more flexible than the Barclays agg. Traditional bond funds will get crushed once rates begin rising whereas unconstrained can be a bit more tactical in its allocations    

Also, what's your views on active management vs. passive?   For the accounts with no mutual funds, are you investing their assets directly into equities, index funds and/or etfs?   I'm genuinely curious

Some clients have several mutual funds eh? Would that include multiple large cap strategies benchmarked against the S&P? Or maybe some small cap? Maybe sector specific mutual funds? ie.. Healthcare, TMT, Utilities?   What's your views on the current interest rate environment and how should investors best position their selves in the search for yield? What trends are you seeing in this asset class?    

Steveyboy, where'd you go? I saw that you replied TWICE in the other topic yet ignored this one?

When will the wealth trickle down from the super rich to middle class?  

I thought the wealth was supposed to trickle down though? The super rich are doing better than ever.    

3? 5? 10? 100?   How do you structure a typical client's asset allocation? I'm here to take notes.

Because the middle class is broke. NEXT!

You talk the talk but can't even read, LOL!

Hating Obama is your life purpose. Thanks for the laugh, commoner

It'll be okay, just keep cold calling and pitching your crappy index hugging mutual funds. I believe in you.

No, you cannot. I've repeatedly stated my political position yet you continue to imply I identify with a particular party. Therefore, you either can't read, can read but can't comprehend what you're reading, or you're just being willfully ignorant. Which one is it, stevenash?

Jv_coach, thanks for the laugh. Another teabagger in denial who will be crying his eyes out in 2016 when Hillary wins in a landslide.

I just admitted the economy is terrible and the teabaggers bash me for having the same opinion as them. I can't make this up folks.. small town setx folks for ya!

How many stances do you need. 3? 5? 900?

The Great Recession never ended, federal reserve intervention only prolonged the inevitable. Are you really trying to show me up discussing finance and economics? If I recall correctly, you're a financial advisor or something similar, aka glorified salesman.

Stevenash, it appears you're suffering ANOTHER case of not being able to read. Poor guy.

Stevenash, thanks for pointing that out. Using your logic, I can confirm tigers voice is now a LEFTY

Because we're in a new low growth environment and it'll be that way for a long long time (I personally think we're double dipping) Next question!

Stevenash, if you actually read my posts you'd see that I am fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Therefore, I obviously (or maybe not to obviously to you), believe his economic policies haven't been the greatest. However, I do not entirely blame him for the current economic environment. Enlightened individuals like myself understand the developed markets will slow down while emerging and frontier markets begin undergoing substantial growth similar to what we experienced post WWII.

What can I say, intelligence is frowned upon in YALLS part of town

Whoa, calling me a jackass (WITH ALL CAPS) Sounds like you hate our country as well
