Aimless meandering best describes this slow holiday week. The major indexes dropped for the 4th straight week.
Our Trend Tracking Index (TTI) for domestic funds/ETFs remains below its trend line (red) by -8.49% thereby confirming the current bear market trend. 
The international index now remains -21.40% below its own trend line, keeping us on the sidelines.

So Ulli,
If 2000 is really the beginning of another secular bear as some muse (not unlike 19966-1982, do you have an alternative investment plan for yourself & clients since with money mkts are near 0% interest rates especially since yur advisement biz began after the last secular bear if I read yur bio correctly? 5-15 years is a long time to tread water for some of us or does the TTI turn positive during normal cyclic bulls during this protracted period since 2003-2008 was an outlander by any definition.
Just wondering?
The TTI price line has rapidly declined this year. This move is followed by the trend line in a delayed fashion and eventually they will meet creating another buy signal.
This could happen sometime this year, provided the market does not tank further. Mathematically, both lines will have to meet. The longer it takes, the lower price will be once we buy back in.
No, this will not take 5 years…
Ulli…
