If the data is accurate, and despite a 10 year negative trend from about 2000 - 2010, the outlook of the index has been overwhelming good Macrotrends
So would a potential investment strategy be to buy up as many stocks as possible in various companies listed on the index, sit tight and fugedaboutit for a number of years?
As long as the 2000 - 2010 anomaly doesn't happen again during your hold (risky), then you're good, and it really doesn't matter when you bought, to make a return (if you can wait say 10 years minimum).
I'm a novice (can you tell?) and I know I'm oversimplifying things. I'm actually looking at opposing arguments to learn more.
Also why does that site say a 90 year history of the S&P 500, when Wikipedia says it was founded 59 years ago?
