Imagine you bought BP stock 20 years ago
Perhaps as part of your pension and you're now looking to retire, yes, you'd have got some dividends over time. But once you consider inflation over the last 20 years you've now actually now got less money than you put in. Galling.

The same is true for the FTSE100 index. It's about 5% down since Sept 2000.
It's full of dull, plodding, low to no growth stocks in telco, financial services, oil and mining, retail etc. I wouldn't hold out for much prospects of growth over the next 10-20 years either what with the faster pace of 'creative destruction' of companies in the index. Where are the tech giants of the future like the USA? Answers on a postcard...
Just Apple alone is worth more than the entire FTSE100.Comment
