Stocks have been a terrible place for the past decade, having gone through 2 major recessions in 2000 to 2002, and 2007 to 2009.

Since the post-crash rallies in that decade offered a couple of opportunities to multiply portfolios a few times over, I'd be happy to get the chance to do that again.

It will certainly be fun to have a "normal" bull market decade too, if/when one comes around again.

Keith I could disagree more and my portfolio agrees with me :O)

Had you qualified that with 'buy stocks 10 years ago and rode them up and down' ie BUY and MOLD.. (not a typo :o) then OK...

coming out of a bear market - buy and hold But they already did the holding and had nothing to deploy when coming out :O)

generational opportunity. Yes... if you survive the stress relatively intact..
