Lost Decade

This is Jeff Wareham, ScotiaMcLeod Wealth Advisor, with some thoughts
for investors outgrowing their mutual funds.

A few days ago, i mentioned the beginning of US earnings season, and
how important the numbers reported over the next few weeks would be.
So far, both US and global companies have been posting pretty
impressive numbers, and that trend continued overnight, with
spectacular numbers from Intel, from China, and JP Morgan. We may see
the Dow jump over 10,000 today. All of this is great news, but some
perspective is required. The Dow is only back to its levels of
1999...in essence, investors have lost a decade. Tune in this
Saturday for ideas on rebuilding your portfolio after this lost
decade.
