But in the Mustachian Era (the years since 2011 when I started writing this blog ), there has only been one: the 2020 Covid Crash which only lasted about a month. It’s fun math – a 20% drop in prices means you get 25% more shares for your dollar, and a 50% drop means twice as many , or 100% more shares per dollar invested.).

So I think that argument is very valid in those couple of years, 2009, 2010 probably, maybe 2011, which was a tough year for hedge funds. RITHOLTZ: So hold the duration risk aside with those two, but just for an investor in treasuries, I know you’ve done the math before. You still had 2012 to 2017 to finish the bet.

And so I realized I was going to have to invest and save for my own retirement. I couldnt figure out where it came from; so I worked out the canonical math. Now, the article came, I believe, at the end of nine, 2011 when gold was coming off of a run of very high return (1900 and change or so if memory serves?).
