The graph shows the range of share market returns in every year from 1900 to 2008.

Look at the worst years (ie. 1930, 1973, 1974, etc) & then find the following year.

You will notice a dramatic increase after a poor year.

This is the investment cycle at work.

Getting a good, competitive return is not about timing the market, it's about time in the market.
