[quote=Anonymous]not sure why i'm bothering, but.... http://www.marketwatch.com/story/almost-no-one-can-beat-the-market-2013-10-25 in that news item, there is a link to a study concluding that 75% of actively managed funds failed to beat the market, and that far fewer can do so consistently, over a period of years. these are people who do this for a living. that is why i laugh when you say that anyone who just fell off the turnip truck can magically pick a basket of 30 stocks and beat the market. when i was in college, i got really "into" investing. you sound like me back then. naive. the tech bubble in 2000 happened to me and i lost most of what i had (which fortunately wasn't much). assuming you are a newbie investor, you have been riding a really nice upward wave. just wait until we have another 2008-2009.
