Jeff, As far I could tell, he really was not talking about the retrace, the way you are. Tended to focus on how long it takes the market to break the pre-bubble highs. In the case of the Dow lows of 1930s, it took 25 years to hit a new high. He also mentioned how the Nasdaq bubble formed and burst much faster than the Nikei and Dow. I don't believe his comments really focussed on retracing bubbles. So far you are the only one I noticed that is following this retrace method. This guy on today was the closest I have seen on CNBC..which is surprising on CNBC given the large number of guests they have. Actually Ron Insana (CNBC anchor) back a couple of years ago used to put up the Nikei chart along with the Nasdaq, comparing the two. He got death threats for that! I recall him saying on air that someone was blaming him for the market tanking in 2000. He seems to have been someone who saw the bubble when it was a bubble....and his charts of comparisons of the Nikei and Nasdaq were really scary..they seemed so unbelievably identical! Jeff, One question for you. If the economy does not go into a depression like the 1930s, can the market sink to the same degree?
