Written by: Michael Markowski On Friday October 5 th , Bloomberg reported that Stifel Nicholas’ institutional equities strategist Barry Bannister predicted that the S&P 500 will enter a bear market in the first quarter of 2019. Mr. Bannister in late January 2018, was the analyst who predicted a minimum market correction of 5% for the first quarter of 2018. By the middle of February, the S&P 500 subsequently fell by 10%. He also advised the firm’s clients to stay the course after the correction arrived. Click here for more details on why Mr. Bannister is predicting that the S&P 500 will decline by more than 600 points and to 2283 by the end of this coming February. Mr. Bannister has a track record for making accurate long-term forecasts. In 2017, he predicted that the market would go to new highs in 2018 and that a bear market would begin in 2019.

Mr. Bannister uses two ratios including professor and Nobel Laureate Robert Shiller’s cycle adjusted P/E which is also known as the CAPE ratio. His second is the Q ratio which is the market cap and debt of a company divided by its hard book value.My math says that the S&P 500 will decline by at least 60% from the current bull market’s peak to the new bear market’s trough. I am also predicting that it will be 2030 before the S&P 500 is able to eclipse the high-water mark for the bull market, which began in 2009.To understand my math and also the bear market and recession investing strategies that I am recommending from now through 2030, watch my recently taped two-part interview about the “Day of Reckoning Approaching for the market” which will air on the Fox Business Channel during the second half of October.
