I don't know if you have read Martin Zweig's book, but he describes the elements necessary hisorically for a bear market (20% plus drop). The factors are deflation, inverted yield curve and P/E ratio for S&P 500 in high 20s. Looking at commodity price trends, there's a deflation argument. Inverted yield needs to stay inverted for a prolonged amount of time. I think we're just getting started there. I remember in Fall 1995 an inverted yield curve. It didn't last long. We've got the high P/E ratio. I hope I haven't talked myself into a bigger correction <g>.
