If my aunt had a beard she'd be my uncle.<br />A good reason why the global economy expanded in the 'past' 20 years was based on flawed, distorted, and corrupt fiscal, monetary, and Fed policy (sic). <br />We would be left with $28+ trillion in 'unpayable' debt, mind numbing future legacy obligations, and a 'totally' worthless currency.TradingStrategyLetter - Weekly Summaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06430136667577107255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6616959642391988608.post-7797293287763854202011-05-11T06:47:13.436-07:002011-05-11T06:47:13.436-07:00"If ____ in the next 20 years then _____"..."If ____ in the next 20 years then _____"<br /><br />Just fill in the blanks ;~)<br /><br />What is the average holding period for a stock in a stock mutual fund these days?
