Alot of HOW successful funds are at reaching their delist goal can be due

Posted by: Flash on Aug 18, 10:13 in response to slappydavid's post I'm past 100M, so I keep thinking about applying for a...

to the limitations the fund HAS for what it can invest in...so keep that in mind. As a player - you can buy anything, and you can reach $100M much faster than a fund.

Remember that funds can only invest in their specific areas, so reaching $100M is harder.

And if your "long term trading skills are very underdeveloped," that may hinder you from delisting a fund quickly... just an observation I have.

Funds are also there to help newer players see what a fund manager is doing, so that they can perhaps learn from that experienced player...

While you've done well in the time you've been here, (congrats!) you may want to have a few "seasons" behind you (summer is the best time to grow a port, but other times of the year can be more challenging). A good goal for you would be to see if you can earn another $100M during the fall...one of the most challenging times of the year, with not many big blockbuster movies to rely on to earn big $$.

Funds can also be very time consuming to run, and it's much easier to reach $100M on a personal port, than with a fund - due to the limitations on what you can invest in while running a fund.

I'm not trying to discourage you, but only give you some things to consider as you think about whether or not you feel this is something you want to do.

Congratulations on the $100M goal.
