>> Over 4 years, that is a compound return of 25.7% per annum. Not so wonderful, since I can get that from a mutual fund with much lower risk. << Jumper.. statements like the above illustrate the mind set of this market. I'm not disputing that this statement appears to be legitimate as of late... but ...historically..... is very dangerous. When people in a market begin to have the mind set that they can get 25% returns without assuming above average risk to do it.... WOW~!@ That scares me.... History teaches us there is no such thing as a free lunch... When you can throw a dart at the wallstreet Journal and rack in 25% returns or better a major reality check can not be far behind. But I can hear the drums beating.... but its different now.. its Dow 8000...10,000 .. I recently received a newletter claiming dow 15,000.... these natives never stop beating the drum.... its always a buy.. no matter what the price... its a buy Yea...sure
