> Japan's market is now lower than it was 18 years ago
What makes you say that dearest? You need to look at the topix index instead of nikkei(which has been rebalanced multiple times since '83).

> Buy and hold is a myth

That's not well reasoned either. If you "hold" long enough(say over a 20 year old period) you would come out ahead(of other investment options).

>Does William Hammond still say he's buying all these bargains? Does anyone on the winners thread have any money left?

I am buying these days. In fact, I buy every day--selectively, but nevertheless buy...
