  • You Can't Keep The Markets Down [View article]
    AlanCelt's posting that this is a miss leading article made me dig a little deeper into the rate of returns and where Mr. Stewart got his data. As posted above he mentioned that his data came from the Federal Reserve. In addition to that information I found that S&P 500 pr (price Return) began on 2/29/1928.

    Using DOW numbers as AlanCelt did to explain the performance of the S&P does not make a lost of sense to me. I like the sprit of the challenge in that we should never take things a face value. That’s like picking a President based on campaign ads!

    Thanks AlanCelt for keeping me honest! And Morningstar for the data!

    Data from the Wall Street Journal article was from the Federal Reserve and should have taken into account dividends.
