Quote of the Day

"In our view, holding extreme growth stocks has historically impaired capital over horizons so long that some investors were not around to see a recovery. We would call that real risk—a risk that we think is swept under the rug in a Sharpe ratio that measures the frequency of transient shocks rather than capturing the risk of long-term capital impairment."

(Brian Chingono and Nick Schmitz)
