Lazy Portfolios vote for a winning 2009

Upbeat new year ahead after beating S&P 500 by 3-18 points in 2008

ARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (MarketWatch) -- OK, here's the good news. Here's what the guys who created our winning Lazy Portfolios have to say about what's ahead. They beat the S&P 500 every year since we started tracking them in the 2002 bear-recession. They're beating the index in 2008. And they'll do it again in 2009.

How can anyone be in business if they have been mostly losing money for 5 years? Even the returns from their best performing funds are lower than the interest you get in the bank. Who on earth invests with them?

Classic. *Filed away in brain's C:\ Drive*.


As for relative performance and being down, I agree if you dollar cost average in it might be worth it, especially if your time horizon is 30 years. I think I read somewhere dollar cost averaging in is one of the most profitable ways to "invest"? Can't remember if I read that or someone told me, dunno.

Plus I guess it depends on what he holds, if its index type funds...well no one ever made money long-term shorting the market. And if this guy has some decent picks he'll probably come out alright.

2 cents.

That's why he's "running money" in the journalism business.
