Since 1948, the S&P / TSX has provided positive returns two-thirds of the time. In the chart, annual returns were plotted year by year within respective ranges which resulted in a fairly normal distribution or statistically what is referred to as a bell curve, with most returns hugging the 0 to 10% range. The year 2008 saw a decrease of 33%. in contrast, the year 2009 saw the pendulum swing completely the other way, with the TSX returning 35%. Generally, negative returns tend to be followed by positive returns.
