Justa,

It's not fair to copy part of a sentence and argue against something I never said. The full sentence quote is . Bob will not call a sell signal until after the market has declined at least 15%, if at all (let's go with the S&P) Bob will not risk giving a premature sell signal and will instead wait till the market already tanked before "predicting" the bear market.

This is a testable prediction (in scientific terms). After all, if a prediction model has any predictive validity, it must accurately predict something.

So let's see what happens.

So, as I posted previously, If, based on his timing model, Bob predicts one [a bear market] before it occurs (and issues a sell signal), I will have been proven wrong. If he issues a sell signal after it occurs (or never) I will have been proven correct.
