For most "surefire" investments, the word gets around quickly, leading to overcrowding. Plenty of markets show this. Houses quickly adjust prices in response to market demand, millions of people rush towards the next high end career. There's a pattern to all this and inevitably the path becomes overcrowded and the financial rewards significantly diminished. I suppose there is no substitute for innovation.
