A market strategist that I follow seemed to call the recent crash and has been telling anyone who would listen that he called it back in the third quarter of 2018. Great, but just holding through then, until now, doesn’t look to be all that different.
Back then, giving him the benefit of the highest point in the quarter, the SPX was around 2900 and today it is 2790. Down roughly 4%. Was it down more a couple weeks ago? Yes.
However, I need to be more skeptical about people who seem to claim to know more and can accurately call tops and bottoms.
