I've been searching for this article about a study that concluded that selling stocks just because they've hit all time highs will be a bad move more often than not. They had a chart to go along with the study. Can anyone locate this study?

Are you thinking about the "story"/study of the guy who only bought at peaks?

Just remember that selling at all time highs on average is different than selling at all time highs in the 10th year of one of the longest bull runs in history.

How would you define a bull run though?

As opposed to selling when at an all time low is a bad idea?
Maybe the answer is just to never sell...

Don't know, just saying there's a big difference between first year of recovery and tenth.

We're not in a 10-year bull market. Barely two. I grant we're probably near the end of an economic supercycle, but this hasn't been an unbroken bull market since 2009. Stocks spend more than half the time at all-time highs.

What’s the difference? PE ratio was in the 100s when the market bottomed out.
