If we judge it by the lost decade after the 2000 tech bubble definitely not back to stocks.

A portfolio of things like gold, small cap value, long term treasuries did 10% a year while stocks did like 0% a year for a decade.

you cannot cherry pick, you must judge stocks over multiple decade long trends.

Yes but also nobody's absolutely forcing you to keep your money if you feel like stocks are in turbulence

In fact you win even more if you feel like stocks are bubbly and wait in say gold or short term and you buy more stocks when they are cheap

Also US stocks have underperformed compared to EU when you take all factors into account and all US stocks have rather been focused on AI hype which once again is a bubble which will fundamentally break the US economy.

It's like saying 2008 crisis still made you money long term

Sure if you are 20 years deep and even then nobody could've predicted what happened. The sentiments were extremely low

I am one of the biggest index funds advisors usually and that's when I read finance books and wanted to go into finance but genuinely felt like index funds are just so great that the need is very low

In fact I must admit that I dislike saying Gold but its genuinely one of the best assets (although it may be overvalued now not sure), another investment is specifically globalize your index fund portfolio to extreme/exclude US. In fact if possible bet on index funds on the opposite side of AI which most likely feels gold and yes, I am a little sad about this fact but rules of the game changes at points of extremes so gold is valid option right now

What’s no longer outperforming? Gold?
