Final answer:
The given statement `No one has ever demonstrated an ability to buy and sell stocks at the right times consistently over any meaningful length of time.` is False.
The answer is option ⇒b) False
Step-by-step explanation:
False. No one has ever demonstrated an ability to consistently buy and sell stocks at the right times over a significant period. It is difficult even for financial professionals to predict changes in future expectations and choose stocks that will consistently beat the average.
Most investors, including mutual funds, end up performing worse than the market average. Trying to pick stocks that will gain a great deal in the future is a risky and unlikely way to become rich.
The answer is option ⇒b) False
