Fear of inflation has ordsprog

Fear of inflation has caused (U.S.) fund managers to raise their cash positions to overweight from underweight. It has also driven a dramatic move out of U.S. equities, the perceived risk area.

I would tell people who are overweight in technology to use any bounces to lighten up in those areas, raise some cash and shift portfolios into more defensive positions.

There seems to be a move towards responsible disclosure. That (fund fees) is one area where you can clearly see that fund directors are not doing their jobs. They're always willing to raise expenses. It doesn't make sense.

I think (the market) needs the ECI price deflator numbers coming in at acceptable levels, meaning that they don't raise the fear of inflation, it needs the Fed not raising interest rates in August and as we move toward the fall, continuing signs that the economy is moderating and that inflation is low.

Rising oil prices, like other unfavorable price shocks, can also feed through and raise underlying core inflation, ... So there is also a risk on the inflation front, and the risk is higher now than it was a year ago.

If you don't eliminate the bias caused by smoking, it will artificially inflate the risk of dying among the lean and underestimate the risk of dying in the overweight,

announcing an actual number or range [for inflation] would serve to anchor public expectations of inflation more firmly and avoid the risk of 'inflation scares' that might unnecessarily raise nominal bond yields.

You can only control for what you can control. And without a really good understanding of the risk a hedge fund is taking, you're in the dark. And don't forget that what you're really buying when you invest in a hedge fund is your claim on a manager's skill and insight.

We were also impressed by what Dodge & Cox Income didn't own. The fund is overweight in corporate bonds relative to its benchmark. In 2002, that meant trouble because investors ran from corporate bonds for fear they would get caught holding the next Enron. This fund not only avoided disasters, but it also found enough winners to return nearly 11 percent in 2002. Just as impressive, the fund's returns for the trailing five and 10-year periods rank in the top 10 percent of its category.

Fund managers are asserting that a slowdown in telecom spending is here for foreseeable future. As far as investors needing a dedicated technology fund in their portfolio, it's not essential because many growth funds will give the exposure and diversification they need, without the risk.

[Researchers at the American Cancer Society compared the risk of dying among overweight people in two of its studies-one done from 1982 to 1991 and another from 1998 to 2002.] Instead of decreasing, ... the relative risk of dying among the overweight actually increased over time.
