Any science direct subscribers?

OK, have this now, thanks Ken.

Would be interested in a copy of this paper. I’ve a vague feeling there’s something missed in it but need to have a look to see.

  1. No, not that. He’s using Treasuries as comparison. So, looking at the failure rate of stocks against a government bond that didn’t fail. What if we include the universe of govt bonds, including the failures?

  2. On page 2;

    “The single most frequent outcome (when returns are
    rounded to the nearest 5%) observed for individual common stocks over their full lifetimes is a
    loss of 100%.”

    I give up.
