Then why did my stock portfolio so wildly outstrip both my securities and funds portfolios?

I did have the foresight to convert all my stocks to securities two years ago when the Rats won the Congress back.

Does this guy make his money selling bonds?

There you go, you are ACTIVELY managing your own portfolio instead of letting some fund manager do it for you. No one takes care of money better than the owner.

What’s the difference between a stock and a security?

That was very astute of you, converting stocks to securities when Rats won Congress back. People need to look ahead and make the right decisions but it sure is difficult. That “buckets of money” guy (can’t recall his name) has opined recently that if one cannot ride the waves of the market at LEAST 15 years, they should stay out of stocks totally. I happen to agree with that opinion.
