If you had unwound your bet three years ago, you would now be sitting pretty – as long as you had gone into cash, of course – because the period since 2006 has undone most of these gains. So if you had held your bank stocks up to the end of last year, over 110 years your investment would have yielded an annual average return of less than 3%, still broadly a break-even strategy.
如果你在三年前解除了赌注，那么现在你将处于很有利的位置——当然前提是你已经将之转为现金——因为2006年之后的时期，此前那些收益将大部分化为乌有。因此如果你一直到去年年底还持有银行股，那么你在这110年中的投资年均回报率将低于3%，仍然大体上属于不赚不赔的策略。
