LOL. Please tell me you are joking. There have been innumerable studies done going back to the 1950’s ALL of whom consistently demonstrate that long term, actively managed portfolios overwhelmingly tend to underperform their respective indices. Jack Bogle has been writing on this subject since at least the 1970’s. Recency bias my @$$.

It sounds like you have been drinking deep from the well of the Ausrtian School’s Kool-Aid. The problem is that these same predictions of global economic collapse and a hyperinflationary inferno have been around since at least the early 1930’s. And it hasn’t materialized.

Please do laugh. It doesn't trouble me at all.

Please also stop back to update things.

I will leave you with a question...

If the stock market is so fantastic, why are Central Banks stepping in to purchase futures and other derivative contracts to prop it up every time it begins to fail and looks dicey? Why is that necessary?
