As we enter another year in the Sunshine State, one thing remains consistent—hurricane season. For many Floridians, this season means more than just stocking up on emergency supplies.

Today's Chart of the Day, from BlackRock, illustrates the potential downside of staying in cash for too long. It highlights the excess returns of a 60% stock/40% bond portfolio compared to cash since 1926.

The black boxes below show the percentage of time cash underperforms; for 10 years, that is 91% of the time.
This highlights the old adage, "It’s not about timing the market, but time in the market." If you have funds that you will not need for more than 10+ years, historically, stocks have been your best bet.
