Oh I get it. Just invest in the ISDEX and you are guaranteed super performance...<< Not my words! Go long on one or two of them, no more than 20 percent of portfolio and you'll be amazed! Stupid me, thinking things like profits and business models matter, I try to actually know something about the losers I'm throwing my money at.<< Your trying too much. Narrow your focus to one or two and go long. I think we've found ourselves a new form of growth zombie, folks.<< Something to consider: "Peter Lynch, who may be one of the greatest investors of all-time, is famous for saying -- and I may be mangling this a bit -- that there is no correlation between great companies and stock prices in the short term and there is a 100 percent correlation in the long-term."
