How do we know where we are in the current stock market cycle? Are we in the midst of a new long term bull market or a market rally within an ongoing bear market?

A good example is the seasonal cycle. Each year we have spring summer autumn & winter & after winter we have spring again. But the weather can & does vary a great deal from one year to another. & so it is with the stock market. Kerry Balenthiran has studied stock market data going back 100 years & discovered a regular 17.6 year stock market cycle consisting of increments of 2.2 years.

Whether you are an investment professional or private investor this book provides a fascinating insight into the cyclical nature of the stock market & enables you to ensure that you have the right strategy for the prevailing stock market conditions. ...
