Hi guys.
I'm just popping over from reddit.com/r/investing to inform you that you can't actually beat the market in the long term.
I hope you all enjoy your 5% yearly returns.
Thanks.
Tell that to Warren Buffett

Bait but I'll reply. People on average cannot beat the market over the long term net of fees. Fees are going down and based on what I see from most investors, I am above average.

Hi guys.
I'm just popping over from /r/cuckolding to inform you that you can't actually beat black bulls in pleasing your wife.
Thanks.
The stock market maybe, I'm trading in the multi-billion dollar shitcoin market competing against other human retards

5% is great actually. Imagine you have one million invested. This is 50k$ a year doing NOTHING

500% is disappointing on /biz/
>>2062295
He's right - stock market is for pussies and faggots, it makes me sick how fucking clever people think they are being in it

this
and it's working out pretty fucking well for us downy faggots

This is true but untrue.
>You can't beat the market in the long term
yes, but this doesn't mean you can't beat the market within a timespan of say one year.
All you need is to beat the market once, then invest in the market indefinitely. Thus you've net essentially beaten the market in the long run.
The more accurate statement would be you can't expect to consistently beat the market repeatedly, which is entirely true.

This guy is also wrong. Studies have shown passive investment typically outperforms active investment even before fees are considered into the equation. That includes trading and management fees.

Is crypto shilling just as bad on Reddit, or is it just more contained?
>>2066147
We don't discuss cryptocurrency over at /r/investing, it's a place to discuss the benefits and drawbacks of different index funds.
>>2066147
The idea that any of this crypto bullshit is investing makes me laugh. It's trading, not investing.

It's more like 12% I am not sure where you got 5% from.
Holy shit, /biz/ is defensive af. You guys know Reddit is right on this one. Within a year, and you would probably still gain less than 2% of your shitcurrency.
