    You’re looking at the wrong time frame. Try looking at the past year or year to date. Both are very bad.

    Why would you look back 5 years?

        So why did you skip mentioning the other time scales? You only mentioned from one that was contradictory, not the ones that verify the article’s claims. I suspect you are commenting in bad faith.

            Yes there is a gain from 5 years.

            Currently we are very near 1 year lows. This is the issue at hand. Not whatever straw man y’all decide to attack next.

            Maybe you should go look yourself.

      Most people investing for retirement are looking at 30 year+ time frames. It’s typical to at least look at a 5 year period because that is the minimum amount of time you should be invested for unless you are a day trader.
