I’m generally new to investing. I think that it might not make sense to assume that you will make an average 7-10% annually by investing in s&p 500 index funds. Who’s to say that the s&p 500 won’t start moving sideways like the FTSE and Nikkei? Economies change, and no one knows if America will continue to be a huge expanding economic power house. A future of more democratic and socialist politicians could reshape the US economy and make the rampant growth stop and begin stagnating.
I tried to find out why the FTSE and Nikkei have been moving sideways, and i couldn’t find an answer. I also couldn’t find anything about why the S&P 500 won’t start moving sideways as well. If someone could tell me more about these things, i would love to hear about it.
