The risk taken by the Mystery Investor is quite interesting. How close are we for a significant correction in the Larger Market?
The situation of the Larger Market we face is unique. I'm a follower of it for both personal and academic reasons. History of cycles (and smaller cycles within) of in major bear and bull markets can be seen as based on economic cycles of expansions and the corrections of the excesses in either direction. However, times are different and social, cultural and generational changes play into all that happens causing the cycles.
The preceding bear market ended in early March 2009. Since then we haven't had a bear market (At least a 20% and plus corrections, by definition). A look at the long term cycles would suggest that a bear market may be closer than we have been. However, no matter how and what we see in the past record, interpretations still remain as such.
Modifying factors at our different and unique times currently happen to be the advancing state of high tech (especially in AI, automation, increasing use of robots, etc.), globalism, and what looks like a new political tendency (US) beginning to shape up world leadership and relations questions and the reality of the question of how to share leadership by the the larger dominating powers of the world.
We may see some beginnings/rumblings(?) of the Larger Market(s) if Business loses confidence in Trump for tax cuts talked and promised, time and again. It could turn into a serious challenge if the Rebuilding of the U.S. Infrastructure has not been adequately dealt with by next year.
It appears the Mystery Investor's bet timing not too bad, imo. Yet, we are living in original times, and quite unique in so many ways. But that's another big subject as it entails a lot more.
