saltnvinegar | what will be equilibrium rates of return here?? |
gkobylko | I guess, no one can obtain above average risk-adjusted basis return |
kutta2102 | The equilibrium rate is the long term arithmentic mean for an index. For example, if you plotted the yearly stock returns for DJIA for the last 50 years and drew a line, it will show that while some years had greater returns compared to others, on the whole the returns will be in the equilibrium rate ballpark. |
cong | Adjustment to equilibrium rate is inevitable in the long run. |
