his analysis is the generic crap spewed by every would be analyst.

LOL, if only...the generic crap spewed by the average analyst or financial advisor is 11% compounding returns til the end of time. of course, at that rate, the stock market's total valuation will exceed GDP by an order of magnitude well before the end of time, according to my precise calculations.

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

this kind of reminds me of how 80% of Americans think they are better than average drivers. what a great country--everybody lives in Garrison Keilor's neighborhood!

since 3/2000 investors have been given an object lesson in their inability to beat the market as they are trounced out of their nest eggs due to investment in supposed market-beaters. investors, individual or otherwise, will never beat the markets in aggregate.
