MM,
""Exuberance is out, rationality is in, 5% or less should be the future return on stocks over an extended period of time. Count on it or be prepared to “loose.”"""

If you take the long term view and discount the extremes in the market his analysis is the generic crap spewed by every would be analyst. This sets a benchmark for inefficient, incompetent, self serving, stock brokers to beat.

However, it assumes you own the market. Does anyone here own the whole market? I think not, that's why we invest in individual stocks as a way to beat the mediocre market averages. There are thousands of examples of good stocks in bad markets and bad stocks in good markets. Our job as individuals is to beat the pants of these clowns and raise a glass in celebration. Caution, there is a time to lower the glass, take profits and find new opportunities.
