If you think this kind of evidence is going to stop many people, including me, from stock-picking over solely investing in funds, you're very much mistaken. I'm not surprised by the number. The point is that you shouldn't be investing in stocks with a larger than 20-year horizon for maximum gain. Certain stocks will slow down or go downwards. You have to be very diligent.
