7% a year for ten years sounds like a pretty decent return, and yet everybody has been complaining about it. This 7% represents the return of large value stocks the last decade, which is pretty good. That is until you consider that few things are more relative in this world than investing, where people compare their returns to what they could have earned elsewhere. 7% isn't bad, but compared to 14%, which is what large growth did over the same time, it's downright awful.

Don’t fight the forces, use them. – R. Buckminster Fuller. Everyone thinks that due to the recent events caused by Coronavirus we are in uncertain times. I believe we are always in uncertain times. The emergence of any event has multiple co-dependent factors and nothing gets created out of a vacuum. Since we cannot know and control all the factors that lead to the manifestation of any situation; we cannot be 100% certain about any event.

Something changed in the market today. The winners became the losers and the losers became the winners. With beaten down names like airlines, cruises, and retail bouncing, and the winners like Clorox and Regeneron lagging, the market is sending a message of hope that this is the beginning of the end of our battle with COVID-19. Being long the "stay-at-home stocks" has been the trade of the year.

Articles Value looks cheap on a relative basis, but doesn’t scream totally cheap on an absolute basis. By Wesley Gray What’s the bull case here for stocks?

I wrote a version of this post four years ago. It was true then and is true today and will be true tomorrow. The world has always been populated by young bulls and old bears. What do Bill Gross, Sam Zell, Jeremy Grantham and Carl Icahn have in common? They’re all old, they’ve all had brilliant careers, and they’re all bearish on the stock market. ( From April 2016 ) Whether it be in music or in sports or in markets, the prior generation never thinks “kids” will ever measure up.
