Set forth below is the text of an answer that I submitted to a question (“What Are the Best Tools for Learning About Finance and the Stock Market?) at the Quora site:

I am obviously biased but I believe that The Stock-Return Predictor is an essential tool for all stock investors. The calculator performs a regression analysis on the historical return data to reveal the most likely 10-year annualized return starting from any possible valuation level.

Knowing your return in advance takes most of the risk out of stock investing. Many view this tool as “too good to be true.” But it is backed by 32 years of peer-reviewed academic research. Wall Street doesn’t want people to know about it because it lets people know when stocks are so overpriced that they are not worth buying. But I think we all have a right to hear both sides of the story before putting our retirement money on the line.
