As one who has followed Bob Brinker since 1981, did Bob warn his clients out of the market prior to the bear market of 1982 or the 1987 crash? I'm curious to know if he's as good at predicting downturns as he is at staying the course in a bull market. I simply don't know, but you might with your long familiarity. One wag used to say "don't confuse a bull market with genius".

Martin Armstrong, the director of Princeton Economics Institute, is occasionally quoted in Barron's. I've heard him interviewed on the radio a few times. He's been analyzing markets since the late '70s, and his primary business seems to be in helping large international firms with their economic forecasts. Currencies, the stability of various countries and their debt, economic cycles, these appear to be his primary focus. I first heard him predicting a July 20th turn in the market last February, although he was saying that his model identified that date four years ago. From what I gather his model is predicting another, much larger downturn beginning in the first week of September. So it looks like we will have a good opportunity to compare Brinker vs Armstrong.
