Personal Investments • Re: Endorse? David Giroux, T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation

It's not a good comparison at all. PRWCX should be compared with a 60/40 or 70/30 portfolio.
You're right. I messed up and in a stupid way. The combination of the phrase "capital appreciation" in the fund name, and the reported statements of David Giroux emphasizing stock selection, made me think it was a stock fund. Even though the initial poster mentioned that it was a balanced fund.

Not an excuse, but I do see that T. Rowe Price says
The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks. It may also hold fixed income and other securities to help preserve principal value.
That seems like an odd way to describe what is currently a 55/45 balanced fund.
And, I believe the fund's stated benchmark is the SP500. I just ignore that and hold it as a balanced fund choice.
