Yeah it makes much more sense to focus on the past and ignore the present.

After all its the past that will cost you money.
Nobody ever lost in the present.

What Dan is doing now has no impact on your on vestments at all.
It's all in the past. You need to keep an eye on the guy who isn't in the company anymore.
Don't worry about the guy with your money.
He can't possibly be a threat until after you lose and he is in the past too.

Pretty simple.
The marker is rear view.
Your stocks don't go up or down in the future that only happens in the past.

That why there are disclaimers for backward looking statements.

You can only control what has already happened to you.
The future is meaningless. You can only fix the past.
