Thread: TRYING TO TIME THE MARKETS

Interesting, but somewhat, old market talk.

This study has an unusual origin, one that underscores just how little is really known about abrupt market swings and their effects on a portfolio's performance.

This can be overcome, it's called educating investors.

To measure the effect of those swings, we looked at two time periods -- 1926-1993 and 1963-1993.

Wrong period. Try 2000 to the present!

2 cents worth, IMHO! Spaf
