Decide whether the statement makes sense. Explain your reasoning.I am young and I'm going to invest my money for at least 6 years. I am going to put all my money into stocks. The return is higher than for other investments and over such a time period, there is no risk of losing any of the principal. Historically there has never been a 6-year period in which the Dow ended lower than it started.
What will be an ideal response?
No, the statement does not make sense. Historically, there have been 6-year periods in which the Dow ended lower than it started, for example the period January 2000 to January 2006. Even if the Dow had never before ended lower than it started over a 6-year period, there is no guarantee that this couldn't happen in the future.
