NYA broke out to new all-time highs within two years of the bear market low, roughly within the same time frame that it took in the early 90's. That wouldn't happen in a secular bear market, and made more significant by the fact that the NYA constituted more than 70 percent of the total market at that time.

I would find your arguments more persuasive if you left out the personal insults.

if you are trying to imply stocks don't double in a secular bear, just look back to the 70s. plenty of stocks double but it is a rare occurance. WMT etc were strong stocks in the 70s. Towards the end of the decade Atari was a straight line up in the 70s thanks to a bunch of video games.

But because Atari had a win with pong or whatever it was, does not mean 1978 was a bull market.

I am a google investor and google quintupled in this secular bear, apple too.

Doesn't mean it is a bull market just because one stock doubles.
