Buy and Hold Myth part 4

October 03, 2009 By: Doctrader Category: Financial Info, Long term savings, Pension 401k

Part 4 of the Buy and Hold Myth series shows the current secular bear market, beginning in 2000-2003.  The beginning of every Secular market, lasting 18 years, begins with the short term cyclical market (lasting 18-36 months) of the same type.

Currently, if you measure your current rate of return since the year 2000, you may you will be disappointed.  The next few days, you should receive your quarterly 401k statements. Do you dare to open them up and compare your results since the last quarterly statement? To read more about my Market Cycle theory check out my blog post last year, warning investors, at “What is the Weimar Republic?”
