The Monkey That Outperformed Wall Street's Best

What if everything you believed about investing was wrong? In 1973, a Princeton economist proposed something outrageous: a blindfolded monkey throwing darts at stock listings could build a portfolio rivaling those crafted by pinstriped professionals earning millions. This wasn't a joke-it was a serious academic argument that would revolutionize how we think about money. The claim seemed absurd, almost insulting to the legions of analysts poring over balance sheets and economic forecasts. Yet decades of evidence have proven it remarkably accurate. Markets, it turns out, are far more efficient than our egos want to admit. The professionals we trust with our retirement funds rarely justify their fees, and the complex strategies they employ often amount to expensive noise. This insight has helped millions build wealth not through clever stock-picking or perfect timing, but through something far simpler: accepting that you can't outsmart the market, then investing accordingly. The question becomes: if the experts can't beat a simple index, what hope do individual investors have? The answer lies not in superior analysis but in understanding human nature and market efficiency.
