LIG: Re: I must disagree with this comment. As Herb stated in is first post on this topic, In fact, if Brinker used this strategy for the last 200 years he would have been correct 100% of the time."

Glad to hear life is so good for you guys that you have a life expectancy of 200 years. I don't believe you guys have any respect or knowledge of how dry the stock market can be for an extended period and those years can suck the life out of you.

Re: "Hypothetically, the market could tank 50%, and in 2 years recover and reach new highs. In this case, Bob could still claim he was correct and that staying fully invested was the right move (it would however be in conflict with his oft-stated intention never to ride out a bear market)."

Good grief, this one of the silliest things I have ever read. Hey, LIG, define "bear market" as Brinker defines it. Let's see how good a listener you really are and see if you can muster some PHD type of analysis to make your theory work.
