Like Sequoia fund: [quote] When Warren Buffett wound up Buffett Partnership, he recommended Bill Ruane to those of his limited partners who wished to remain in stocks. The vehicle Ruane formed to serve those partners - Sequoia Fund - began operations on July 15, 1970. And Sequoia's record has been one of the best among mutual funds despite carrying large cash balances during most of that period. Since its inception, Sequoia has earned a compound annual return of 16.8% versus 12.1% for the S&P 500 through June 30, 2002. And it appears that the fund's recent performance stacks up pretty nicely, too - with it having been down only 3.6% year-to-date, versus a loss of 21.4% for the S&P 500 through July 30, 2002.
