always keep five days in a year only cash not equity( A very good trading strategy)

In an ideal world, the intelligent investor would hold stocks only when
they are cheap and sell them when they become overpriced, then
duck into the bunker of bonds and cash until stocks again become
cheap enough to buy. From 1966 through late 2001, one study
claimed, $1 held continuously in stocks would have grown to $11.71.
But if you had gotten out of stocks right before the five worst days of
each year, your original $1 would have grown to $987.12.
