paul you are a very experienced investor who has been at this a long time. you are also willing to stay the course and buy stocks as they are plunging and keep making buys. that is the opposite of the average investor who after their portfolio has gone down 20-30% cant take the pain anymore and sell. somewhere i saw and reposted the actual returns investors make from some well known mutual fund and the disparity from the results posted by the funds are pretty shocking. My non ira portfolio which had been down over 50% from inception around june of 08, is having another banner day and is for the moment up
6% overall. However it make take years for my ira portfolio to recover to previous highs as i have made very few trades in that segment of the portfolio and it continues to heavily overweight junior mining and oils, and also contain the mogif and washington mutual preferred losses, as well as the apex silver bankruptcy.
