Any thoughts on fund manager Bill Nygren at Oakmark?


I've had Oakmark Select for about 5 years and have noticed its poor performance the last 3 years. Is it time to bail out of Oakmark?

Keep in mind that the biggest holding is Washington Mutual (14%) which is Financial and they do sub prime deals. Nygren is good but it appears he is holding on to it much longer than needed.

If you don't like the financials right now (and I don't) then bail.
