Yes, NASDAQ 1000 would still show a very nice return.

As for the S&P, well that thing could drop to 750 this week, a most unlikely event to be sure, and it would remain an impressively bullish chart over the long haul, returning about 11% annualized since the takeoff in 1982. I mean, the run that it has been on since 1995 is a statistical aberration. Oh, I forget, it's a new era and 15% return is expected. Where do these clowns think it would be in, say, 2015 at that rate. What's the economy that underpins such a fantasy?

The stock market and real GNP both went down in the period 1929-1932. Since then, I don't see a strong relationship between the two.
