If you had invested $5,000 in 2000…

…it’d now be worth $2,200. Basically…my investment would be nearly down by 50%. I am wondering if it’s really wise to keep any money in the market at all. Perhaps there is a wiser way to invest. Albeit, lesser profits but safer.

All, I can say is WOW! We still haven’t recovered from the .Com bubble bust. Just look at the chart below…

I wonder how long we’ll take to recover from this recession. It’s an epic fail of Efficient Market Hypothesis.

PS:

This is not the actual representation. But a very vague one at best…
