And I made an exact 3100% return buying and selling General Growth Properties (NYSE:GGP) in early 2009. It doesn't mean outside of outliers that swing  your averages you wouldn't make more money if you were able to use the tools that a significant investor gets through their investment bank. 

Just being able to be fast money playing off of equity offerings and IPOs can be very very lucrative. You can't do that at all (at worst) or anywhere to the same degree/allocations (at best) when you don't have those tools.
