Diana: They [women] were much less inclined to do short term trades; much more likely to be buy-and-hold types. This entirely accounted for their greater success as a group. That's a dirty little secret that the brokerage community never tells you while seducing you to open that day-trade account. It would be like a casino putting the odds on the front door! <g> How everyone that trades thinks they are going to be one of the few that beat the odds is a mystery to me. Of course most people believe they are above average in looks and have a good sense of humor too. Most men that is! -Robert
