For several years I have been testing a fairly simple model I developed for forecasting the U.S. stock market. Every six months or so I have included my forecast in a newsletter that I distributed to patient friends. The results have been pretty encouraging, so I decided to try adding them to a blog.
My current forecast covers May to the end of October 2013. The models forecast a stock market rise of 7%. The probablility of the market at least breaking even during the period is 76%. The chance of at least a temporary correction during the period is better than even -- 53%. Personally, I think that the model is a bit optimistic, so my own guess would be for a return of only 4% or so.
