he must have another book to shill soon, in his strategy of buying what you know and see in real life I am going to look to invest in the manufacturer of idiot pills that 99% of the world has been taking every day.

Thanks for posting that data. If you have it, what were the worst 20-year inflation adjusted periods? TIA Allan

Ob, Excellent study. Inflation is important, but so are taxes. I wonder how many more losing double decades we pick up when the tax rate is considered? Obviously, there will be fewer before the income tax was enacted. <G> Still, every very long term mountain chart you ever see has a ton of "dividends reinvested" component to it. If a chunk of those dividends go to the IRS, the reinvestment is much punier. And for many of the "great periods" of the market, tax rates on dividends were as high as 70%.
