Brinker claimed that he believed in marketiming to avoid down markets. He claimed there was NO chance of a recession the last I heard. He made fun of people who were bearish--calling them arrogantly, "false prophets" and "cassandras". he claimed "oil was the only problem".

Now we are on the cusp of possibly the worst economy and indeed a severe recession or depression of most of our lifetimes. Expert economists far superior to Brinker in experience and expertise and even charged with righting the ship are convinced that our very lifestyle rests on a hail mary to solve a problem that just may be insoluable.

Now if they hit it perfectly, sure things could improve. There seems to be little confidence in even those promoting the scheme.

Now if you were a marketimer I would think this would be a great time to be out of the market--but Brinker has been gonzo bullish all the way down from 1575 to the mid 1100s.

Isn't it rather silly to see him as Rich said, being nasty to ordinary folks calling his program?
