A Cautionary Public Service Announcement Regarding Asset Manager Fisher Investments
At the request of Fisher Investments, and based on the advice of a family member contacted by the Fisher Group, I have removed the original article posted at this location.
The author's opinion of Fisher Management may solicited by email.
Adequate due diligence should be performed when selecting any asset manager. The author believes that minimum due diligence of Fisher Investments should include a thorough review of the firm's quarterly communications to investors from 2006 through 2008.

Thank you Whitney, and you've hit on a marketing genius, but not investment guru. I listened to their schtick, all the while knowing there was no way I was going to trust stock-pickers who didn't fully realize and disclose an appreciation of the fiscal meltdown, calamity our economy is experiencing, along with a recognition that our current Congress and President has been ruining our country for some time now. Obama/Pelosi/Reid are game-changers, and the "game" was already in trouble without their recklessness and semi-socialism. I would NEVER pick a mutual fund ever again. I have alternative investments and 15 hard-core somewhat depression-resistant companies (WalMart, Costco, BJs, Family Dollar, Dollar General, Gen'l Mills, ConAgra, Hormel, Campbells, etc -- you get the picture. We're in the fight of our lives with this economy and the current leaders are doing the exact opposite of what we need, on EVERY issue. Thus, we'll be in trouble for years. Pump-up artists like Fisher Investments and any other "optimistic" stock-pickers are to be avoided like the plague, but most people don't yet realize this. Also, gold IAU and foreign bonds like Swiss francs are a good bet for some money, get something OUT of dollars. Tough game we're in now. Fisher's not the only clueless stock-picker; most are, IMHO.
