Stingray :

One more point. You spoke about the tax-implications of Beating the Dow strategies. In my opinion, the strategy is best implemented in a tax-deferred account. I have seen some analysis on the Motley Fool web-site about why it is fine even in a taxable account and even with the annual turnovers and taxes, it can do better than a buy-and-hold approach (like with an S&P 500 index fund). But they assume 22% or 23% annual returns for the approach. Whereas realistically, I feel that it has to be 16% to 18% i.e. 1.6 to 1.8 times the long-term growth rate of stocks in general.

Dipy.
