The series of writers on this subject have proved, statistically, that bonds are not, as compared with well-selected and diversified stocks, what they have been cracked up to be; that they are especially deceptive during rising prices, and that even when prices are falling they are not usually superior to stocks. These writings threw a bombshell into the invest-
