Life Cycle Investing, Holding Periods, and Risk

Abstract

This article examines the relative performance of bills, bonds, and stocks over various holding periods. Using a resampling technique that accounts for the cross–sectional correlation between security classes, the authors find that the risk of underperformance for a strategy of investing in higher risk classes of investments is minimal over long holding periods, while the rewards are substantial.
