What You’ll Get Out of Today’s Show

• Eric and Brandon’s opinion on the following statements made in the article:
• • Buy and hold makes no sense because it implies the risk of assets is always justified by the reward
  • Buy and hold implies that prices don't matter
  • Buy and hold uses dynamically composed investment indexes (S&P 500, etc.) to support the case for a static investment strategy (buy and hold)
  • Buy and hold is a purely offensive investment strategy that ignores the defensive half of the investing equation - risk management
  • Buy and hold is passive
