    It is but there is a caveat. His first fund blew up. And I'm sure the ET crowd would love to point out what a bad investment that would have been and how he underperformed the S&P 500 blah, blah,blah. You had to "buy in" to his strategy and believe there would be a payoff long term. That's always the risk of investing with any niche manager.

    I understand the niche style of his investing but it still needs to produce a profit. Uncorrelated is good but 7 red months is too much. Even a randomly put together equally diverse portfolio would've done better.
