Not on the lower end of the 10-20 scale, I don't think. You're welcome to LOL Brian. I'll be buying AMAT at 15-17 within 18 months.

the Nasdaq is unlikely to get back over 5000 for 10-20 years.

If the top 20 stocks in the Nasdaq (based on market cap) were to rise 40% then the Nasdaq would be about 3800.

10 to 20 years.... when everyone thinks alike there ain't much thinkin' going on.

Other notes*** 10 or 20 take your pick you can't have both

The Nasdaq would need to grow about 11.4% per year to get back to 5000 in ten years. It went from 54 to 1000 between 1975 and 1995, which works out to about 14.9% per year, so ten years looks rather pessimistic. Eight years would be about in line with the historical norm.
