Re: [RT] A Difficult market???

I am expecting a very wide trading range market for the next 10+- years as
the most optimistic scenario to work off the excesses of the great bull
market which began in the early 80's and went parabolic in the 90's. Such
wide (time-wise) trading ranges have occurred with some regularity in the
markets, most recently between 1965 and 1982. Such a scenario would
eventually leave investors frustrated enough to exit the equities market and
markets quite thin. Where "buy and hold" was the key to making money in the
great bull, "market timers" will rule in a range bound market.
