As I understand it, Bob defines a bear market as a drop of more than 20%, an intermediate correction as a drop between 10%-20%, and a correction as a pullback of less than 10% in an ongoing bull market.
How would Bob define a prolonged "sideways" market? Does Bob's proprietary timing model try to forecast such a market? If shorting the market or investing in a money market account is the proper action to be taken in a bear market, what would be the proper action to take in a hypothetical "sideways" market? Would Bob recommend continuing to dollar-cost average into the market? For clarification, I'm thinking of a market that nets returns near 0% for approx. 2-5 years or more.

Has Bob ever made any comments regarding such an event? Any comments are welcome.

Best Regards.
