I am not sure of Jack Frosts Elliot count now (actually
not sure he is still alive). Jack Frost wrote the instructional part of the
book. (ie most of it). In 1987 when Prechter turned bearish, calling for 40
on the Dow, I can tell you for sure Jack Frost did not agree with
him. Frost had labelled that decline as a wave 4, and was looking for new
highs at the time.

Actually, I received a copy of "Elliott Wave Principle" friday
nite from Elliott Wave International.....it's a complimentary gift for
subscribing to their service. Soon as you open the cover , on the inside
sleeve, there's a few paragraphs about Prechter. "The Hulbert rating service
reports that The Theorist exceeded the performance of the Wilshire 5000
over the 13 1/2 yr period ending Dec. '93, while being exposed to market risk
only 50% of the time. " It goes on to list other accolades and awards like
for example : "In 1984, Mr Prechter set an all time record in the United
States Trading Championship by returning 444% in a monitored real money
options account in the four month contest period. " "In Dec. '89 ,
Financial News Network named him "Guru of the Decade". Then theres a
Publishers note that gives some back ground on the book. Elliott Wave
Principle came out in Nov '78. "It's hard to believe it's been 20 yrs since we
introduced the world to Frost and Prechter's vision of a great bull market in
stocks. While it's extent has been much more than they originally expected ,
the authors maintain their labeling of the advance as Cycle wave V. "
Perhaps I can find out from any archived copies
of the Theorist just exactly what Prechter was predicting in 98 - 2000.
Because it does look like they were expecting the bull market to end in 98.
While the market did have a rough yr, it also saw the beginning of another leg
up in Oct. 98.

Jack, did you already ask this (not-dumb) question to "The Elliott
Wave Theorist" ? I'm interested in Prechter's own answer........
