THE NASDAQ PEAKED ON MARCH 10, 2000. IT DIDN'T CLOSE ABOVE THAT LEVEL AGAIN FOR 15 YEARS Nasdaq Composite close on March 10, 2000: 5,048.62 By Oct. 9, 2002, it had fallen to 1,114.11, a drop of about -78%. It finally closed above its 2000 peak on April 23, 2015. Plenty of the companies behind the bubble were real and changed the world. Investors still paid far too much for them.

MISSING JUST THE 10 BEST DAYS IN THE STOCK MARKET CUT THE ENDING VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT BY MORE THAN HALF $10,000 invested in the S&P 500 through the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF $SPY from October 2006 to October 2026, with dividends reinvested, per The Motley Fool: - Stayed invested the whole time: about $82,300 - Missed the 10 best days: about $35,700 - Missed the 20 best days: about $21,500 - Missed the 40 best days: about $9,900 That's 40 days out of roughly 5,000 trading days. Seven of the 10 best days came within two weeks of one of the 10 worst days. Selling after a bad day often means missing the rebound. Not financial advice.

WHAT ARE INVESTORS ACTUALLY BUYING WHEN THEY BUY AGILITY ROBOTICS? Scott Walter, Robotics Research Diligence Director at RoboStrategy, gives his take in the full interview He says it's still an early-stage company that raced to market through a SPAC. At around 14 times 2025 revenue, he says you're buying the future, not the present. His advice is to put the "first pure-play humanoid" label aside and do your due diligence on Digit 5, the robot he says the company's future rests on. He also explains why he thinks humanoids could do a majority of physical work within five years, and why the robots don't have to do everything to be useful. They just have to do enough that someone is willing to pay for that work.

BERNIE MADOFF'S CLIENTS HAD $64.8 BILLION ON THEIR ACCOUNT STATEMENTS. MOST OF IT WAS NEVER THERE Madoff was arrested on Dec. 11, 2008. Prosecutors put the fraud at $64.8 billion, based on client account balances as of Nov. 30, 2008. Those balances were built on made-up gains. Court-appointed trustee Irving Picard estimated the money investors actually put in and lost at $17.5 billion. Madoff pleaded guilty to 11 counts in March 2009 and was sentenced to 150 years in prison. As of Oct. 23, 2026, Picard had recovered or reached agreements to recover about $15.5 billion, per the trustee's website. Customers with approved claims had been repaid at least 72.8% of them.

$10,000 IN THE S&P 500 IN 1960 GREW TO $7.58 MILLION WITH DIVIDENDS REINVESTED. WITHOUT THEM, IT GREW TO $1.14 MILLION That's through the end of 2025, per Hartford Funds. Since 1940, dividends have made up about a third of the S&P 500's total return. In the 1970s, they made up 73% of it. In the 2010s, just 17%. Reinvested dividends look small in any single year. Over decades, they've been the difference between a good result and a great one.
