Default Re: Morgan Stanley says stocks could fall 10%

[ QUOTE ]
Question for the statistically minded:

If you have an asset with a 17% standard deviation, how often can you say it will fall at least 10% in the next six months and end up being right on purely the basis of statistical fluctuation (incorrectly assuming a Gaussian dsd).

[/ QUOTE ]

what do you mean "end up being right"?
