It is reasonable to assume that the number of adult joggers will increase if this activity is properly taught and encouraged through school physical ed
18、ucation programs.

Jogging only on the balls of the fe
22、et, as in sprinting, will produce severe leg soreness.Keep steps short, letting foot strike the ground beneath the knee instead of reaching to the front.

My employer prohibits us news folks to trade equities on a short-term basis, but even if it didnt, Id still buy and ho
27、ld.The bulk of my portfolio is in two retirement accounts, and neither stock-market gyrations nor major financial earthquakes prompt me to tweak my allocations. I simply hold a fairly routine mix of low-cost U.S. and international-stock mutual funds, plus a bond fund, and I stick to it.Sure, the mar
28、kets get volatile but I figure that, eventually, average historical returns will work in my favor. And, to my mind, stock-market trading, if youre not spending many hours a week working on it, is little more than a guessing game.The fact is, a buy-and-hold investor with a decently diversified portfo
29、lio should celebrate her ability to remain firm in the face of financial-news tidal waves which prompt many, less staunch, to jump in and out of investments, often at the worst possible time.Some might say the staunch investor is akin to a passenger on the Titanic, refusing a lifeboat to safety due
30、to misguided loyalty to the idea of “buy and hold.“ But as long as three prerequisites are satisfied, that investor is among the most prudent savers around: a well-diversified investment plan, invested in low-cost index funds, with a long-term outlook.In fact, if youre not going to be an active, pay
31、-attention-every-day investor, setting up a simple plan and then forgetting about it may be the best retirement-savings decision you make. “What is often problematic is the middle ground. People will set something up and then follow it intermittently and on a whim make changes,“ says John Nofsinger,
32、 associate professor of finance at Washington State University and author of “The Psychology of Investing.“Those who follow the markets tangentially but dont take time for deeper analysis tend to buy high and sell low.

34、ng the U. S. stock market, perhaps 10% to 25% of your portfolio in international stock funds, plus exposure to bonds (a typical scenario is 70% or 80% in stocks and 30% or 20% in bonds), and perhaps some portion in a money-market or cash-type account. Keep in mind that your focus is not to beat the
35、market.2. Once your plan is in place, ignore it. “I do virtually nothing. I do less than I do for my car. Theres not even a need to change the oil,“ Mr. Statman says. If rebalancing worries you, dont even do that except perhaps once every few years. And make sure you focus on getting back to your in
36、vestment plan, rather than chasing the winners of the moment. “If the stock market went up that year and maybe bonds didnt, so you take a little out of the stock market and put it in bonds to reallocate to where your targets originally were, I think thats a good strategy,“ Mr. Nofsinger says.3. Acce
37、pt risk. Yes, stock-market investing is risky.

38、n Associates, an investment research and consulting firm owned by Morningstar in Chicago. Keep in mind: Avoid this risk with money you need soon, say, in the next year or two. And remember that the more you invest in one company, sector or country, the more risk youre taking on.4. Stay in for the lo
39、ng haul. We have no idea whats coming tomorrow, and past stockmarket performance does not predict future results. But what is your alternative? Stick all your cash in a money-market account, a CD or, slightly riskier, bonds? You are not avoiding risk with this plan, simply shifting to the risk infla
40、tion will trump your return.5. Do what you can. The investment options available through your retirement plan may not be ideal.
