It is an interesting facet of the human condition that the less people know, the more answers they are willing to share.

Having been an investment professional for decades, there is still not a week which goes by that I don’t glean something from the markets. Corrections are the humbling experiences during which I learn the most. Not since the late 1990s, in the midst of the “new economy” frenzy before the great downturn (the NASDAQ began its 78% slide in March of 2000), have I seen so many people investing in vehicles about which they know so little. For what it is worth, at least they do so with extreme confidence.
