I’ve posted Entry #723 to my weekly Valuation-Informed Indexing column at the Value Walk site. It’s called The Buy-and-Holders Failed to Distinguish a Theory from a Finding.
Juicy Excerpt: I wish that there the idea that market timing is not required or does not work was rooted in research. If it were, we could examine the research and point out whatever flaws there were in it that caused the Buy-and-Holders to reach their unfortunate conclusion. But there is no such research! Trying to refute the claim that market timing doesn’t work is like fighting with a ghost. Since the belief is based on nothing, there is nothing that can be argued to refute it.
You are broke. We are not. Fix YOUR problem. The rest of us are fine.
My best wishes to you, Anonymous.

You need a job, Rob.
My job is to open every discussion board and blog on the internet to honest posting re the last 43 years of peer-reviewed research in this field. It’s a pretty darn important job. If you didn’t see how important it is, you never would have advanced a single abusive post with the aim of suppressing discussion of the error in the Greaney retirement study (it lacks a valuation adjustment).

Mutiple problems with that:
1. You don’t have a job and haven’t had one in well over 20 years
2. You are not h9nest
3. Your opinion on what one guy said is not research
4. Disagreeing with you is not abusive. It is actually wanting to have the truth told and you don’t like that.
5. Greaney never made an error you keep lying about it.
6. You are broke and it is all your fault. Stop blaming everyone else.
My best wishes to you, in any event.
Rob
