KIrk,

I have a list of Bob Brinker's ridiculous buy-levels (market bottoms?) going way back, but let's just focus on his "brilliant" market-model over the past 3 years. The three years that included the worst megabear market of our life times.

As he remained fully invested! Brinker 2008 & 2009 Buy Levels:

  • January 4, 2008, S&P @ 1411: "Mid-1400's"
  • Feb 10, 2008 S&P @ 1331: "Low-1300's" (delivered via "special bulletin" - no mention of January Marketimer mid-1400's buying opportunity)
  • Aug 5, 2008 S&P @ 1285: "1240 or less"
  • Sept 2, 2008 S&P @ 1282: "Low-to-mid 1200's"
  • September 16th -- rescinded low-to-mid 1200's (recommended dollar cost-average only)
  • January 2009 S&P @ 931: “bear market bottom range of 750 to 850."
  • Feb. 2009 S&P @ 826: “low-to-mid 800’s"
  • March 5, 2009 S&P @ 696: waiting for a bottom and a test of that low. No DC or buy levels.
  • April 3, 2009 S&P @ 798: 676 benchmark low in. Short-term weakness is buying opportunity. He gave up giving specifics. S&P500 Target: 1000s to 1100s in next 12 to 18 months. (we got there in 5 months!)
  • July 1, 2010: S&P 1030: "attractive for purchase."
