Big Swings, from Jim Sogi

October 8, 2013 |

Between 1962 and 1984, the Dow made five 30-40 % swings up and down from 1000.

There were huge interest rate and tbill swings also with Volker.

1946 - 1981: Bear Bond Market, yields soar from 2% to above 15% during 1981.

With the Gold standard there were some big liquidity squeezes.

We were coming out of two big losing wars.

I see many similarities to the current era.

Scott Brooks adds:

Similar demographics are very much in play.
