simply beyond most managers and investment firms to even consider that in the aftermath of a bubble, equity markets can perform dismally for decades or longer; 25 years after 1929, and 16 years after 1966.

While I don't disagree with the gist- this is a poorly worded and I believe incorrect assertion. Anyone who bought in 1932 had a very nice return potential.

The dead horse he appears attempting to beat with this statement, is those who purchased at the peak in '29 did poorly for 25 years. Those who purchased on dates before or after may have had different luck.
