In fact, if you had put your money to work -which the greatest number of individuals in market history did – back in January, 2000, you would still be down almost 19% on the S&P and 47% down on the NASDAQ.

Stock market trends seem to obey Newton’s Laws. The Law of Inertia states that a body will tend to stay at rest or in constant motion along its present trajectory, unless any other force acts upon it to change its current state. Stock market trends tend to maintain their momentum and follow the current trend unless an external factor powerful enough to change their course, interrupts their path.

If volatility is defined as an increase in the size of daily price changes of major financial market indexes, then volatility is clearly increasing. Using the S&P 500 index as an example: Since the beginning of 2010, nearly 30% of trading days have had closing price changes of more than 1%. During the 1990s, only 20% of trading days had price changes of this magnitude. From 1980 to August 2011, eleven of the twenty largest daily price declines have occurred during the last three years. A trend toward larger intra-day price movements has also occurred. Since 2000, intra-day price changes of 4% or more have occurred nearly six times more frequently than they did from 1962 to 2000.
