I guess nobody believes in holding long anymore. Everybody in the public eye is telling us we need to be a riverboat gambler. But if you were long some big names like WMT, AMAT, HD & CSCO for the last 5 years it has not been so bad:

Average return is 38% to 68%/year or 188% to 341% for the stretch. I wonder if the gamblers do as well?

So far, 751 companies have made pre-announcements on their first-quarter results. Of those, 363 have warned they would come short of expectations, 167 have said they will meet targets and 221 readied investors for upside surprises, according to earnings tracking firm First Call.
