Yes, the 12% Bob used in his study is for 81-98, which was an almost
uninterrupted bull market. Based on Steven's figures, it sounds like
8-8.5% is valid for the looong haul since 1932.
I wonder: Looking at the 8-8.5% rise since 1932, does the market
normally drop back to the 8-8.5% line after extended bull runs?
If so, we could be looking at the possibility of a much larger drop
than the ~6000 figure suggested by Bob's chart...
