    Barbie

    Just got back from seeing it. The premise had potential but I thought that the execution had a lot of stumbles. The dolls know nothing about the real world but navigate it seamlessly once they get there. Allan (Michael Cera) makes no sense -- he's a one-joke gag until his defining scene...

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    He's 34 years old, has endured one of the worst injuries in basketball, already has his rings and his money, and hasn't led any team anywhere since his Oklahoma City days.

    Good points. I've used trailing stop losses a couple of times on individual stocks, where it has felt like time to get out, but I wanted to go ahead and ride the wave a bit more if I could. I'm pretty high-maintenance with my individual stocks. I don't pretend to have any special insight, but...

    Has she tried, you know, asking E*Trade? I've found their customer service to be good, although not at the level of Fidelity's.

    It seems like a decent idea, but what's your time horizon? If it's long, you have to figure out when and how to get back in once your stop loss is triggered. (If you buy back in for more than your limit price, you'll be worse off than if you'd let it ride through the bottom.) If it's short...

    I don't know why we'd assume that there aren't any aspiring professional athletes who start doping at 15 or 16. Look at what the preteen "women's" gymnasts put themselves through.

    Thanks for these recommendations. I had FTBFX, whose performance is nearly identical to FEPIX, and decided that I couldn't justify keeping it. Both of those funds have averaged 2.3% over the last ten years, which means they've lost ground to inflation. FSRIX could be a good compromise for me...

    And there's the rub. It will take the bond market longer to make up for -12% than it will take the stock market to make up for -18%. I'm diversified because of my age, but I don't think of bonds, as a broad group, as providing safety anymore. As I try to shift slightly more conservative, the...

    They were hit hard in 2022 and haven't gotten swept up in the broader recovery, so to my eye they are still depressed. But I agree, keep a careful eye on them. I have a mutual fund (RRRAX) and a few individual stocks, one of which, OHI (medical properties) is doing decently.

    Who isn't considering it? I've always assumed that James has been on PEDs since high school. The physical maturity of his body when he entered the league was unprecedented for someone of his (young) age.

    True, there are other possibilities, including other congenital or acquired heart defects. I'm just biased to suspect WPW in cases like this.

    WPW is congenital. There are no risk factors after you are born.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    I was thinking Siakam, but you're right, that probably wouldn't work. I agree.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    I want a three-way where the Suns get Siakam, the third team is trying to get younger with Ayton, and Toronto gets whatever.

    23-24 Season Win Prediction

    DraftKings has the over-under at 51.5, which looks a shade low to me. Before looking it up, I was thinking 52.5 or 53. Things would have to go pretty badly for them not to break 50, whereas approaching 60 seems not too unlikely if they can stay moderately healthy.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    Boy, I hope not. If I'm making $30+ million per year, why should I care what some idiot schulb on a message board is writing? Durant might be reading, but we know he's deranged. Admittedly, though, it was fun when Curt Schilling used to be on the board.
