It's ridiculous to start a comparison period at a high immediately before a brief market crash which was nothing like a bear market
just because they don't have data going back to the last true bear market in 73-74. In recent years Timer's digest has rated Marketimer at or near the top. If you want to see how Marketimer does in a bear market then you'll have to wait and see, but if you print a study that picks the exact worse comparison period for Marketimer and admit it doesn't include a bear market and say well since we're not including a bear market we'll throw in this crash even though it may have no predictive value for a true bear market is bogus. As far as I've seen his market calls have been remarkable
