Prechter has been preaching the same refrain since 1994
I took a cheapo 3-month trial newsletter back then

he called the Dow move from 1987 levels of 1000 to 1994 level of nearly 4000 "speculative, groundless, and bound to return to 1000"

so you can hold back from lionizing Prechter
he is still 9000 pts wrong
maybe by this autumn, he will only be 8000 pts wrong

interesting how after a painful decline, the autopiloted naysayers are labeled geniuses
I am not saying you labeled Prechter a genius
but the undertone is one of assigning credit to his theory

Raymond James's Henry Bloch has been a bear for years
he missed the entire run from Dow 7500 to 11000
now he is a genius for calling the top

I look at clowns like Fleckenstein
the guy has been a bear since 1994
maybe even a bear since before he was born
maybe his mother was from the ursa species

these guys simply dont know how to make money
they occasionally make a right call
it seems they do well at selling their services
not to me
enough, silly me
