Kirk: RE:"Some data... compiled by Dan_G"

From the stats you present, it looks like anyone following Bob's advice caught most of the bull market profits from Jan 1991 (DOW 2550 area) up through Jan 2000 (DOW 11,122) - not bad if you have a long term investment horizon.

It looks like Bob was cautious after failing to call the top in August 1987 before the so called "crash", through Jan 1991. Not knowing the future during that time period when the country was in recession, it seems to me that being cautious sounds like a very prudent course to follow.

The way frame your presentation of the data, it sounds like you disapprove of Bob's approach over the years you covered. Do you think you could have done better ? You know better - NOBODY has a crystal ball and a stock market turning point schedule. You know his calls are probability based (surely you've heard him say that many times). So just what is your problem, guy ?
