Let's go back in Time

Some of the latest from Hay's Advisory:


Dateline:November 4th, 2010—Election two days ago and stock market has mini-celebrationas it moved to a recovery high led by commodities and technology stocks. T-Noteyields plunge.

Dateline:November 9th, 2010—Gold/most commodities make new high in the wake of Bernanke’s focus on QE2 and herd dismay.

(So check out the Time magazine covers in October and November of 1994)

Dateline:November 14th, 1994—Election four days ago (mid-term when Clinton lost 50+ seatsin House) and stock market has mini-celebration as it moved to recovery high.

Dateline:November 21st, 1994—Three days before Thanksgiving, stock market experiences sharp 3-day correction that produces oversold market.

Dateline:December 9th, 1994—Two weeks later, stock market makes final post-election low and starts 7-month strong rally that has virtually no 2nd chance for investors to get in.

But that is not what pays when you are an investor. It pays to be long-term bullish and to bebiased on the positive side, and it pays to NEVER let herd sentiment determine your investmentstrategy. I have a very small group of market strategists (and politicians) that I trust and admire fortheir long-term strategy over many years. I’m not a huge fan of Warren Buffett, but you have toadmire his ability to make money. He is currently saying some very good things about whatbargains are being offered to stock investors, and how the Fed’s policy is going to be good forfuture economic growth.

That is exactly what our Asset Allocation forces us to do. From our observation and study of history, the only time in 100 years this methodology would have failed to ―see‖ a major bear or bullmarket approaching was in the deception of 2008’s massive camouflage of leverage and fraud.We believe that camouflage has been removed and that a major international economic and bullmarket is in the making. We are all focusing on the current U.S. economy, but I thought it was veryinteresting to see the IMF’s estimate of expected international economic activity for these next six years.

Hell, it's always the same old story. But you may have some bulls,  pointing where the market is going!

Higher---and up BIG!!
