The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

IP, admirable planning and progress.

i am stuck trying manage my longterm active funds, which are >60% of assets. (e.g., primecap)
it is impossible to estimate a running average on (non-us, non-china) revenue and profit on each of these funds.
even some paid data providers dont provide it, and AI either guesses weakly or gives up.

i dont want to abandon funds just because of an underlying american company HQs or listing exchanges.
but i will if >50% of the economic footprint is american, and not just because this is a mismatch to global gdp.
its because america has to pass more than the filters i require of emerging markets. (which is basically frdm etf criteria , supplemented by other sources. china is dropped on any pass.)
