TORRAY FUND

Rating:

DATE: 7/2/2009

Torray Fund has had a really rough go in the past 3 years. In 2007, for example, it was flat but behind, 94% of its competition in the large blend category. I keep reading about brilliant stock-picking and looong term, great results but if I owned the fund I would not be dancing the happy dance. YTD trailing return is 1.17% behind peers by 3.2 points and behind the S&P500 by almost 3 points. ...

Closed to new investors, and that's a shame for some of us looking for a "moderate allocation", fund. LCORX is a five star winner. Not typical in its category, diversification is not its focus. The fund can dramatically shift from stocks to bonds and back. Its portfolio can include REIT and at times, there will be short-selling activity. LCORX is a great choice if you have a large-cap heavy portfolio because of its very low correlation to the S&P 500. 10 year trailing return is 7. ...

PALM INC

Rating:

DATE: 6/26/2009

I am surprised to be the first review for Palm.
The company came out like gangbusters! Now it has been slowed down and still in decline. The competition is just too stiff. Even with its crack development team.

Company has gone into deepo debt to push forth the Pre. ...
