Two Years of Nothing: Bear Market Update Article and full sized graph at bobbrinkerfanclub.blogspot.com Bob Brinker has been fully invested since March 2003. Today we are in a bear market. The S&P500 at 1260 today is a bit lower today than it was two years ago and it is down 20% from "double top" it made about a year ago. I think this chart is worth many thousands of words. On this chart, I do not show Brinker's latest "all in buy level" since he published it only a week ago. His FOURTH all in buy level (despite being fully invested since March 2003) came AFTER the latest bottom and is below where the market has traded this month. My question shown on the chart, "do I hear low 1200s?" did not fall on deaf ears..... March 19, 2007 Marketimer Special Subscriber Message: We are very pleased with the stock market correction progress that has unfolded in recent weeks. As a result, we now rate the stock market as attractive for purchase on any weakness that may occur in the vicinity of the S&P500 Index 1380 level or lower. [S&P500 was 1,386.95 the night before this bulletin was published. It close at 1,402.06 on the 19th. A month later on April 20th, the S&P500 was a 1484] Bob Brinker’s August 16th, 2007 Evening Bulletin (After the market close): "Any further testing of the area of the correction lows, which we expect to be close to the current S&P 500 Index level, is regarded as an additional buying opportunity for subscribers looking to add to stock market holdings." (S&P500 on August 16, 2007 before the bulletin: High=1,415.97, Low=1,370.60, Close=1,411.27) January 2008 Marketimer with S&P500 @ 1468.36 : Dollar Cost Average. Lump sum mid 1400's Pg 3: “In summary, the Marketimer stock market timing model indicates that conditions are favorable for the market as we enter 2008. We expect the S&P Index to achieve new record highs this year and to reach the 1600’s range in the process. We continue to rate the market attractive for purchase on any weakness into the S&P 500 Index mid-1400’s range. Above this range we prefer a dollar-cost-average approach for new purchases. All Marketimer model portfolios remain fully invested as we enter 2008."
