Too Early To Tell

When is it possible to buy a security for 100, sell it for 150 after 9 months, and get fired for underperformance? Answer, when the end of your next reporting period is three months after the sale, and at that point the security is worth 200. The fact that three months after that the market has crashed, the security is now worth 80 and you look like a genius doesn't help you - you are still a genius looking for another job.
