A lot of people would be better off it they just took a $100 a month and put it under their mattress, i.e. throwing money into a pit. There are obviously many better ideas than that.

Thank for for that paper, I'll give it a read.

The next line in Seyhun's paper is more interesting to me and the focus of my research and strategy:

> If the 10 worst days are eliminated, the annual return jumps to 14.06%, and the cumulative return increases to $44.80. With the 90 worst days out, the annual return rises to 21.72% and the cumulative gain to $325.40.

I believe this paper describes a strategy that accomplishes that goal relatively well: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4346906
