<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 822298, member: 3011&quot;]I agree that most will lose, but this phenomenon is not confined to gold and silver purchases.&nbsp; The same can be said of other investments.&nbsp; About 10 years ago, I read an article that calculated that in total over the life of the Fidelity Magellan Fund, one of the most successful funds in history, more money was lost by investors than gained.&nbsp; How could this be possible? Well, most of the spectacular gains under Peter Lynch were made when the fund was very small.&nbsp; After it became the giant, the outperformance ended and measures of flows into and out of the fund indicated that most of the purchases came near the highs, and liquidations near the lows.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was just referring to one very specific case where some folks overpaid, but may yet be bailed out by the bull market.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
