I agree. A diversified portfolio based on sound academics is far better than chasing hot segments or recent high performers, or trying to pick the winners or time the market. Most folks that play the game lose, that is a fact.I did most of my reading and research about 20 years ago, and did a lot of reading of Motley Fool, Chart of the Day, Market Watch, Value Line, Morningstar and the Hulbert Financial Digest. After a few years I realized that the amount of time, energy and risk it would take to try to beat the market made it nearly impossible, and most people can't do it. All those stocks, research, things changing, etc. made it nearly impossible for me to beat the market. I knew there were a few people that consistently beat the market. Was I smarter than those few people? Probably not. Could I simply do my best to follow them? Probably yes.
So, I read and researched the model portfolio's that had been consistently beating the market for over 20 years and followed them. I was not interested in following a model portfolio that had only been doing well for around 10, because it may or may not be sustainable.
You could try that. It did very well for me.
Or you could listen to the guy on T.V. that screams and throws rubber chickens around.
