    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?

      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.

        The context is not about retirement. This thread is about the recovery from the current downtrend.

      Why would you look back 5 years?

      Because it takes 0.5 seconds to click a different time scale?

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

          That’s just factually incorrect. You should actually go look at it yourself.

            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.
