If people are destitute after a 5% drop, they really need to reconsider their investment strategy. Index funds are the only viable way.
Not if you're going for those big gains they aren't ๐ช
Yes they are, I'm up 30% over the past 3 years. Just buying and holding index funds. If you chase big gains, you'll get them sometimes, but you'll also get big losses that just cancel them out. Slow and steady wins the race.
Thank you for the common sense.
