Michael Reeves Just Ruined Investing

"a year ago i created my own experiment where i personally invested a hundred thousand dollars in 10 randomly picked stocks by the youtube monkey boo and guess what to my surprise at the end of the year the youtube monkey generated a 41 return and beat the entire s p 500 by 13"

"and in 2022 when i repeated this experiment again the monkey portfolio lost 9 during a time where the s p 500 was only down three and a half percent"

"the buying of index fund strategy has even outperformed hedge funds and the best actively managed funds in the world by a rate of nearly double"

"between 1980 and 2015 smaller stocks returned over 11 on average while large stocks only returned 8"

"and as you can see from the s p 500 in black the goldfish beat that return 96.4 of the time over a three-year period by an average of over 14 percent"

"so michael reeves built an algorithm that analyzes the top stocks of each day tracks them and then we can see who does better a community of 10 million people strong or a goldfish"

"so which one did better well before i tell you you really have to understand what's going on because as easy as he makes it looks the entire setup is rather genius"

"well in order to find out whether or not frederick actually does well these stock picks are benchmarked across one of the most renowned and respected investing community of the entire world wall street bets"

"so michael reeves built an algorithm that analyzes the top stocks of each day tracks them and then we can see who does better a community of 10 million people strong or a goldfish"

"so as you can see throughout the experiment the goldfish purchased 23 stocks including costco pfizer chevron facebook not bad well wall street bets bought gamestop amc blackberry cloverhealth and a multitude of the most talked about companies on the interwebs"

"so that just means when animal stocks are picked at random while investing an equal amount in each you're more likely to include smaller companies which have a higher return than the overall index"

"research conducted in 2013 found that by randomly selecting 30 stocks out of a list of a thousand companies and buying them all in equal proportion you're increasing the likelihood that that portfolio would contain smaller stocks which have more potential for higher growth"

"and as you can see from the s p 500 in black the goldfish beat that return 96.4 of the time over a three-year period by an average of over 14 percent"

"animals actually make really really good stock pickers for example there is a blindfolded dart throwing monkey who beat professional stock picking experts 40 of the time throughout 14 years we also have an octopus who not only correctly predicted the world cup championship but also outperformed the brightest minds of goldman sachs or this other goldfish who outperformed the market by an average of fourteen and a half percent over three years we also have a cat who beat the market by eight percent a monkey named adam who beat jim cramer a chimpanzee who beat 94 of russian bankers and even a crypto trading hamster who beat warren buffett"

"and michael if you're watching this i'm looking forward to settling this in the boxing ring on may 14th"

"so if you want to settle this we could settle it on may 14th at the creator clash event"
