When holding the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWY) ETF, how long should you stay invested to have high probability to achieve a positive return?
Over the selected period (~25 years), the longest duration with a negative return was 210 months (from November 2007 to April 2025).
This indicates that, within the same timeframe, any rolling period of 211 months or more has consistently resulted in a positive return.
Understanding this metric is crucial as it highlights the importance of a safe investment horizon.
