It has now been a year since stocks hit a new all-time high.
Hard to believe, but for all the gyrations and Central Bank interventions, the S&P 500 remains well below it all time high of 2130 established May 21 2015.
Why does this matter?
Because it greatly increases the odds of stocks entering a bear market.
As Jeff Hirsch noted late last week, going back to 1929, there were thirteen times that stocks failed to hit a new all-time high for a period of 12 months.
Of those 13, TEN TIMES (76%) stocks entered a bear market collapse of 20% or greater before beginning a major leg up to new highs.
