The DOW is about where it was in 2000. Not a happy picture for an investor who kept a stock index fund over that period. To succeed, do you have to foresee irrational trends in the markets?

As the stock advisers will tell you, you purchase stocks and hold on.
How has that worked for eleven years? Your mattress could have actually had better returns.
