I don't know that either Abby or Joe B fits the definition of Market Timer. They've tended to recommend staying relatively fully invested at all times.

So has BB... Joe B is very good at picking stocks as well as being right on the market.

Lazslo Birinyi, IMO, should be added to the top of the list. He's consistently been the most accurate at calling short term direction.

Lazslo ALSO won the stock picking award on WallStreetWeek. He has been great!

Many bulls, not listed here, said "buy the dips" on most of the dips including 1998 so I give Brinker nothing extraordinary for those. Brinker's call in 1994 when the market was flat to "buy, buy, buy" was brilliant. IF he correctly figures out what to do NOW at these valuations, then he could go into a hall of fame if he goes against the crowd and is RIGHT. I wonder if there is a desire to "retire on a hall of fame market call" could cloud his decision making process???

I agree that Birinyi has a good record. Your comment reminded me to link his latest Forbes article which I think is one of his best.
