InvestTech says it best in its November 17, 2017 issue. If the S&P 500 closes high in November, it will have posted a positive total return for 13 consecutive months, surpassed only once in 90 years \u2013 1959. The next year (1960) the economy entered a recession. it is becoming increasingly important to remember that trees do not grow to the sky, and bull markets do not last forever.\u00a0 Spectrum agrees. Our models also indicate a bullish market environment for equities so until our indicators reveal elevated risk we will participate, but our exposure is watched closely on a daily, hourly, even minute by minute basis.\u00a0 We will act quickly to reduce exposure when our indicators reveal elevated equity risk.<\/p>\n Equally important to remember – just like all bull markets come to an end, bear markets end as well.

\nWe\u2019re not sharing these insights because we have turned bearish in our market outlook. We haven\u2019t.\u00a0 Most technical evidence and virtually all macroeconomic data still point to new bull market highs immediately ahead.\u00a0 However, it is becoming increasingly important to remember that trees do not grow to the sky, and bull markets do not last forever.\u00a0\u00a0And don\u2019t forget that virtually every bear market except one (1956) has repossessed or taken back roughly one-half or more of the previous bull market\u2019s gain.\u00a0 www.investTech.com<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n
