Fascinating Phaedrus .... is really 'spooky possums' sort of stuff
But is it .... cosmos (your word) and/or nature seem to work in strange ways
Paul Ormerod has some interesting articles and books about the similarities of economys/markets and nature .... intriguing stuff

Phaedrus, Good to see you sticking your neck out on this one. There looks to be a little bit of scatter on the previous rally data. Have you considered any error limits on your predictions?

I'm not really sticking my neck out, Arb. You will notice that I craftily refrained from giving the time of the peak.

Aberrations all. There is but one true average. You may be one of those negative people that my astrologer warned me to avoid. She says they tarnish my aura, inhibit my creative visualisations and throw my chakras out of alignment.

I don't like to focus unduly on this, but yes, I have. See the chart in post #79.

Thanks for this - best laugh I've had all day.
I have, of course, noted the date in my diary.

Phaedrus
Im not quite sure whether you are taking the mickey out of yourself or not....
Alas, you must be making quite a bit of money at present as you seem to be in a jovial mood.

Hey guys, good news... NZ fund managers made a return of 30% last year... *YAWN *YAWN...
NZSE have gone up 35% and they have gross 30%??? WTF?
Better to put your money in the index and pay min brokers fee.
Having got ourselves into a debt-induced economic crisis, the only permanent way out is to reduce the debt – either directly by abolishing large slabs of it, or indirectly by inflating it away.

Taking the mickey????
Footsie, you're wondering whether he's taking the mickey? The answer is right here.

NZSE 50 31/12/08 was 2715.71.
NZSE 50 31/12/09 was 3230.15.
Increase 18.94%
I think it depends what dates you use Doctor. The index was down at 2522.32 at the end of Feb 09 which gives an increase of 28.06% to the 31/12/09. I think the bottom was about then. But you are right there is little point in NZ based funds. A different story off shore though.

Disagree 777 ..I different story off shore??...apart from ozzie (maybe some others?) off shore in 2009 was a mirage for NZ investors.
Most huge gains in those equity markets were offset by their falling currency.
NZ $ index on the other hand rose from .58 to .73
Add that currency value of the shares into the equation and the NZ Stock market yearly gain looks rather huge in comparsion to the rest of the world.
