Hi Justa, I need some help because I'm becoming more confused every time I hear Brinker's outlook on the market. Here's my understanding of how I think things will play out:

If Greenspan is successful in engineering the so called "soft landing" and inflation is held in check, we should see the markets recover, and going to new highs.

Is Bob now saying that he doesn't think that Greenspan will be successful in achieving the soft landing? Or, is he saying that there are other factors now in play that will cause a continuation of the bear market, regardless of achieving the soft landing? If this is true, what are the other factors?

I know that a slowing of the economy, and achieving the soft landing, will more than likely have a negative impact on corporate earnings. Is this the reason why a soft landing won't be a major factor in turning around the markets?

As you can see, I have somehow lost my perspective on what is going on and why.

Appreciate any help that you can offer.

TIA
