I just snagged this clip from a post on the Qualcomm board which could go with the trough/cash allocation percentage data if one follows it:

Message 14716998

"Moreover, a mutual fund tracking service called Trim Tabs estimates that mutual fund cash has reached 5.1% of assets, the highest cash position since November of 1998. Thus, stocks are lean and mean by dint of the sharp September-October correction and cash has been building on the side lines. Once past the election, this market could gratify those which sincerely want be rich."

I haven't checked the source (Trim Tabs) and was curious with the grammatical pharse "those which sincerely want be rich" line, but it would be interesting to find out the data of cash percentage this time around to see if it couples with previous trough times that Malkiel spells out in his book in 1970, 1974, 1982, 1987, 1990, 1994 and 1998.
