More importantly how has HSGFX done the past 3 months (-0.51) or 1 month (+1.90). Since I believe the S&P 500 will fall below the December 2018 lows, should do fine. More of an academic question/answer than anything else.
Looks like it is down 14% for the year. In fact, it has significant losses for 9 of the last 10 years. Plus, the expense rate is crazy high. Why do you continue to tout this fund when its performance is maybe bottom 5% of all funds?
No, that is wrong. I believe John Hussman is the most interesting financial writer and runs in contrast to most. It is you and others that through out his fund performance as your counter argument to his writing, which has nothing to do with the former. I did say HSGFX would outperform TNA the last quarter of 2018 and I was correct. I also said it would outperform the market spring until year end. It is more of a valuation call, that is, rather hold HSGFX at market highs versus equities generally. That is all, nothing more.
