Mon, 09 May 2011 10:21:47 EDT Saving for college and retirement on 1 income When the Fleigs moved from California to Ohio in 2004 for Chris's job as a paper salesman, the lower cost of living allowed Tina, formerly a finance director, to become a stay-at-home mom. (They have two kids, Bailey and Jake, now 3 and 6.) Mon, 09 May 2011 12:06:41 EDT Target-date funds: Don't 'invest and forget' I'm 45 and own a target-date fund for retirement. Are these funds "invest and forget"? -- Joseph Dipasquale, Phoenix Wed, 20 Apr 2011 06:07:37 EDT Taking the F-word out of financial stocks As the son and grandson of investing legends, both named Shelby Davis, Chris Davis is to the mutual fund born. He took a few detours -- at various times considering the priesthood and the CIA -- but years ago found his way into the family business. At 45, he's been chairman of Davis Advisors for 13 years and is committed to the tenets laid out by his forebears: He seeks bargain-priced shares of established companies (often financials) and holds them ... and holds them. Tue, 29 Mar 2011 11:52:11 EDT John Calamos's quest for growth You have to pay for quality. That, essentially, is the creed of growth investors like John Calamos. The CEO and founder of Chicago-based Calamos Asset Management, which has $37 billion in assets, focuses on companies with strong earnings prospects. His two biggest growth funds -- Calamos Growth, with $9 billion in assets, and Calamos Growth & Income, with $5 billion -- have beaten 99% of their peers over the past 15 years, returning 15% and 11% a year, respectively. The veteran fund manager, 70, thinks it's a good moment for his investing style.

These days the fund manager is eschewing scorching emerging markets in favor of the seemingly toxic (European banks) or moribund (Japanese companies). Herro's record suggests a method to his madness. Mon, 14 Feb 2011 05:49:46 EST A cautious bull bets on banks Tom Marsico seems awfully agitated for a guy who's bullish on the U.S. economy. Get him started on entitlements or tax policy, and the 56-year-old Marsico can sound more like a Tea Party candidate than one of the most successful money managers of the past 25 years. Since 1997 his Marsico Focus fund has returned an average 6.6% annually, vs. 3.8% for the S&P 500. A self-described moderate, Marsico fears that the wrong moves in Washington could endanger fragile recoveries in the stock market and the economy. But he's still finding plenty of stocks to buy at attractive prices. The chairman of Denver-based Marsico Capital Management, which oversees $51 billion, explained why he still likes Apple and why he's betting on banks. |
