David Rosenberg says his shift to perma-bull status may come as soon as November if broader despair continues and a few outstanding messes get cleaned up:
For the record, I do see a light at the end of the dark tunnel. Don’t be surprised if I end up turning bullish ahead of the pack — though it may not be until the like of my good friend, Jim Paulsen, is hiding under his desk screaming “uncle”! But the Rosenberg shift to perma-bull status — I was there in the 80s and 90s, but obscurity got in the way — could come as early as Thanksgiving, and the only ones who will know for sure, at least initially, will be our clients, and our portfolio managers.
When perma-bear Robert Prechter turned bullish in February 2009, the markets began an epic rally a few weeks after. His calls on the next downturn have not been as successful. If perma-bear David Rosenberg also turns bullish, will we see the same result? Or will the bottom fall out now that the last bear has left the building?
