I will be appearing on The Kudlow Report tonight to debate with Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel whether stocks really are the best asset class for the long run. I will be on CNBC at 7:05 – 7:15 or so.
Recall over the weekend, I mentioned that Jeremy Siegel is not having a good year — which was a look at a WSJ article (Does Stock-Market Data Really Go Back 200 Years?) that challenged Siegel’s claims made in his book Stocks for the Long Run.
As we have seen, CDs beat Stocks from 1994-2009, and Bonds outperformed stocks from 1968-2009.
It will be my first time on since in about a year- – we will see if I can still mix it up with Larry the K.
