Although a professional investor can sometimes strike it
rich with a big coup, theres no luck in professional
portfolio investing, any more than in master chess. Its a
skilled craft, involving many decisions a week. The year in
year out manager of a large portfolio can no more pile
up a superlative record by luck or by accident than one
can win a chess tournament by luck or accident.
