that if an individual security is mispriced, a smart investor will notice and trade to exploit the mispricing, and by doing so will correct the mispricing. Therefore, opportunities to exploit the mispricing of individual securities are fleeting. However, if an aggregation of individual securities, such as an asset class, is mispriced, a smart investor will detect the mispricing and trade to exploit the mispricing. But one smart investor, or even several, would not have the scale to revalue an entire asset class. The mispricing of an asset class will likely persist until an exogenous shock jolts many investors, smart or not, to act in concert and thereby revalue the asset class. Thus, asset class mispricing endures sufficiently long to allow investors to profit from it.6

      The notion that asset allocation is more important than security selection is based on a flawed analysis that failed to account for what an investor would do as an alternative to investing in the current portfolio. Also, many studies show asset allocation to be more important than security selection because they conflate investment choice with investment opportunity. If we correct for these two flaws, we find that security selection is at least as important, if not more important, than asset allocation. It does not follow, though, that investors should devote more resources to security selection than asset allocation, because, as argued by Paul Samuelson, it is easier to be successful at asset allocation than security selection. The bottom line is that asset allocation is very important, but not for the reasons put forth by Brinson, Hood, and Beebower.

       Chapter 22 shows how investors can exploit the macroinefficiency of markets to enhance returns by anticipating regime shifts.
