A plausible, and historically reliable estimate of 10 - year nominal total returns here works out to only 1.06 * (15/22.7) ^ -LRB-.10)-1 +.022 = 3.9 % annually, which is roughly the same estimate that we obtain from a much more robust set of fundamental measures and methods.
You can also account for possible errors in the amplitudes of the external forcing and the model response by scaling the signal patterns to best match the observations without influencing the attribution from fingerprinting methods, and this provides a more robust framework for attributing signals than simply looking at the time history of global temperature in models and obs and seeing if they match up or not.
Subsequent reconstructions with more data and different methods show very similar patterns (though not identical ones), and so, yes, the general impression of MBH is robust.
