Greg writes of an old "rule":
A healthy market will start at a low point (Jan. DOW = 6200) to a high(Aug. DOW = 8300), then retreat back to the mid-point of 7250 and then return to it's bullish climb. It seems like this "rule" fits todays market perfectly.
----------------------------------
I disagree.

The BullRun started much lower, maybe 777 if I remember, and has only
had one really big "correction" in 1987. Since then, I don't think
it has had more than a 10.X % correction. Your 6200 point is just one of many on a line that goes pretty much up and to the right from 1974 or so.

I made a chart of this which you can see with this url:

This chart shows it even better from 1993 on:

BTW, I think you were responding to BB Jr. He writes/does the www.adcom.com website where BB Sr. had his first web presence.
