Sunday Musings: Update On New Blog Improvements

Last Monday’s premier post titled “ETFs On The Cutline” was a successful one based on positive reader feedback along with a high count of blog visitors.

As I announced a couple of weeks ago, further improvements, to provide you with more relevant ETF/mutual fund data, were in the pipeline, are now finalized and will be published next week. If you are on the mailing list, a notice will be emailed to you.

Here’s what’s coming your way:

Monday (early morning PST):

The second updated version of “ETFs On The Cutline.” The data will be updated through the prior Friday.

Tuesday (early morning PST):

The premier post of “Mutual Funds On The Cutline.” This addition will help you to better manage your 401k portfolio via the cutline principle. While most of us prefer using ETFs, over 99% of all investors are still stuck with having to use an assortment of mutual funds in their retirement accounts—so this regular post should help you with your risk management efforts. The data will be updated through the prior Monday.

Wednesday (early morning PST):

The premier post of “5 Model ETF Portfolios For You To Use.” There are as many portfolio options as there are investments advisors. This post will feature 5 of them with different orientations, and I will elaborate on each of them. The data will updated through the prior Tuesday.

Thursday (early morning PST):

I was going to leave that time slot open, but I think, especially once market direction starts to change, that a second mid-week update of “ETFs On The Cutline” is warranted. This one will feature updated prices through the prior Wednesday.

Friday (late afternoon PST):

I will post the usual weekly update, featuring the StatSheet, market commentary and reader Q&A.

Sprinkled in between these regular posts will be the latest ETF articles of relevance and/or market commentary. These will usually be posted late afternoon PST. If you have a chance to check the blog in the morning and late afternoon, you won’t miss anything.

Saturday/Sunday (early morning PST)

I will post once per day featuring either reader Q & As or current developments in the ETF markets.

My idea with this new schedule is to provide the data with regularity and predictability you can count on. We are all busy, and I think this helps cutting down on your time if you know what data is being published when.

This is the current plan, and I will advise you of any changes along the way. Hope you find value in this greatly improved set up. Here’s my self serving plug: Please tell your friends and business acquaintances about this free service.
