GM, Re: Comments by CEOs and analysts, upgrades and downgrades, earnings revisions probably repeat with each cycle. That would make it easier to predict price during the next cycle. There are so many more influences this cycle that are different from previous cycles that ultimately the market will decide based on current/future events, not necessarily past historical events. The equation is dynamic since the variables change daily. Might be better odds flipping a coin. BB
