Ran across this interesting article a few minutes ago.

Personally, I'm not willing to state an opinion on this. Just putting it out there for those who are far more market savvy than me to provide a little FRiendly analysis.

Sounds like a guy who has shorted the market and wants to make his predictions come true.

The economy hasn’t grown an inch and has not created any NET new jobs in about eight years. So, of course the market will crash. It amazes me that there was ever a bull market. We’re still in a deep depression - which has only been getting worse - and only fake government numbers have kept this from becoming common knowledge.

The problem is that there are a HUGE number of "bargain hunters" with a lot of cash on hand waiting to jump into the stock market if we have a 15-20% decline (the stock market could use a 15% correction soon). Those "bargain hunters" will likely limit how far the stock market may fall.

He tries to time the financial markets — to the exact day, if his charts align just right

Its not about the market technical really. Its all about the Fed. It IS the market now.

Aw, c’mon... no balls.

Very well, I’ll state *my* opinion on this: I have no idea whether his timing is right, or not.

See... that wasn’t so hard, was it? :-)

The late (I think he's passed?) Robert Drach was a market timer that the late Paul Kangas used to have on NBR a few times a year. He had this growly little voice and was always interesting to listen to, but the only time he was right on a stock, that I remember, was Old Kent Bank as a takeover candidate (and it was taken over, now part of the hideously stupidly named 5th 3rd). Market timing is a medicine show act.

Clickbait. What financial forecaster would stay in business if he didn’t predict the Apocalypse?

[servantboy777]

Most market/economic indices are down or choppy at best.
China’s economy is screeching to a halt, exports slowing considerably.

Commodities heading downward, Russian economy in horrible condition. Canada announced recession.

Bottom line, I don’t believe diddly squat coming out of our gubbamint. We are constantly lied to/deceived into the notion all is rosy and the economy is growing.

I watch the economic calander daily. There is an endicy or two now and again that looks positive, but most pointing to regional factory activity, durable goods, GDP really look pretty bad.

These articles are not recent, but did forecast trends relevant to current headlines. This is the background and in-general prediction based on an economics theory opposed by those currently at the controls.
