Did you know?

Did you know that the very first time in US history the Dow hit the 10,700 mark was on April 22, 1999 when the market closed at  10,727.

And did you know that basically, in a span of TWELVE years, Five months, and One day, the market closed with a +/- differential of +6 points.

* Yesterday, September 23, 2011, the Dow closed at 10,733.

And did you know if you had put your precious, hard-earned money into the market on April 22, 1999, and kept it there all this time, you would have exposed it to needless risk and volatile up/down swings for about 12 and a half Years...

And all for Nothing.
