Starting point is 00:01:05 That's 877-747-33. Here is your host, Gary Coltbaum. And welcome once again to Investors Edge. I'm Gary Carlpom. I'm your host. A, thanks for being with us today. Glad you're here, ladies and gentlemen. Happy that you are listening.
Starting point is 00:01:23 This is part two of our educational series. Part two of the big bear markets and its characteristics and the reactions. In part one, we talked to you about how markets top and price and how many stocks and which stocks and sectors and reactions. But we only took you to the point of the major indices not in what they call on Wall Street, bare market territory yet. You see, there's always hope to these people.
Starting point is 00:02:09 And the last thing we told you in part one of this series is that bare market rallies are sharp. They're quick. They make you feel good. They get people talking about them. They suck you in and bury you soon after.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Bear market rallies are sharp and vicious. You get monstrous moves over a few day period as you get short squeezes only to fail. So we also talked about how the 50-day moving average is heading down now, how people losing just a little bit of hope.
Starting point is 00:02:56 But knowing this has happened before in the last 10 years, we're good. But to us, we're just looking for characteristics, not opinion. And most stocks now are in downtrends. Leading stocks have been squashed. We'll get to that in a little bit. Instead of people just calling it a correction, they're calling it a good correction. They're still telling you it's cheap and it's a value. value and if you own stock 20% higher, you've got to own stock here. And if you sell now,
Starting point is 00:03:35 you're selling too late. Believe me, we've been listening to them for many years. But the market had something else in mind, something different in mind. It's a bare market, no, a real one. So what you need to know now is the other part of the 50-day moving average that is so vital. since price is now below the 200-day moving average, which is now flattening out because it's slower. In a bull market, all pullbacks, pull-back into the ascending 50-day moving average
Starting point is 00:04:23 in and around it, sometimes undercutting it a little bit, but eventually just turning back up, the 50-day moving average is a, and price is moving along that 50 day. And on so many occasions, you will find stocks that live above it for a year and touch it almost to the penny a few times. And as we stayed in the first go-round, it is when the break of that 50-day happens.
Starting point is 00:04:59 A stock trades above it for a year and breaks it, it's usually a break of importance. and when you see so many going along with it, usually breaks of importance. But now we're farther along in the bearish market, bear market, whatever you want to call it, downtrend, correction, nasty correction. Well, in a bull market, if price is contained on every pullback of an ascending 50-day moving average, what do you think bear markets look like? It's simple. We now have price bouncing up into the descending 50-day moving average
Starting point is 00:05:54 and failing every time, give or take a little bit. Sometimes it'll rally above it for a couple of days, but always failing. And is there a way of knowing it's going to fail? Well, there are a few things you can watch. Volume. If volume is weak and anemic on the move.
Starting point is 00:06:24 If there's no follow-through at the 50-day. But more importantly, if you did not see enough time, a bottoming process, and you just have sharp moves up, it's usually a fake out. Bottoms of bare markets usually take time and usually take price in and around those same areas. You hear terms of double bottoms and triple bottoms.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Quadruples. What that means is price will go down to a level, rally up, go down to the level, hold, rally up, go down to the level, hold the third time, and then finally turn up. That's how you'll know. So let me repeat this very important characteristic. In bull markets, price will pull back into an ascending 50-day moving average and then continue the ascension. In bare markets, price will rally up into a descending 50-day moving average, fail there, and continue its dissension. And of course, every day we're doing our scans,
Starting point is 00:07:57 every day we're looking for what we call changes. How many times have we said to you, if anything changes, we will let you. know and then an easy way to know if we're in a bare market your stocks keep going down regardless of what your broker tells you and they go down again and they go down again and it weighs on you the more we go down because you had a chance to sell on the initial break of the 50 day you had a chance the cell as a lot more things were weakening. You had a chance to sell breaking the 200 day, but now
Starting point is 00:08:51 you get what we call into the web. It's the psychological web of, man, my account's down 24%. I'm not selling now. Little do you know there's a lot more to go. Oh, my account's down 28%. I'm not selling now. And of course, Wall Street's telling you, the usual, the same thing they told you when the market was down 5%, the same thing they told you when the market was down 10%.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Same thing they were telling you the market's down 15. Same thing they're telling you when the market's down 20. Never sell. Think long term. But they forget and forgot or don't want to tell you. Other characteristics of bare markets because they don't want to tell you. those other characteristics. For some reason,
Starting point is 00:10:01 well, we know what the reason is. Wall Street wants you to just stay in and think long term. And I must tell you, since it's mid-August, 2019, as we do these two educational shows on bare markets, they've been right throughout the years. Or have they been right throughout the years?
Starting point is 00:10:25 because in every bare market, one of the main characteristics are past leaders will get killed. And many names will go by the wayside. They forget to mention that. And you're not going to want to miss it.

I recently spoke with IBM's new director of research, Jake Embatta. We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM research, what we always do is answer what is the future of computing, whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up with better AI, coming up with quantum, or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together. It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have
Starting point is 00:13:06 a legacy of building stuff? Yes. Building actual physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM. I wanted the experience, the culture of building hard things that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point when it will mature, right? My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with quantum? By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem.

Hi, I'm Dr. Jay Goodman, host of Beyond the Script, the podcast where I sit down with pharmacists to answer the health questions you didn't even know you could ask at the pharmacy counter. In this episode, we are diving into gut health with CVS pharmacist Victoria Motola, who explains why so many of us live with stomach issues we should not accept as normal. A lot of what I see is just like chronic bloating, chronic stomach aches. Like I get a stomach ache every time that I eat. And it just becomes like a lifestyle where,
Starting point is 00:14:31 oh, yeah, you know, I just, I have a stomach kick every day. Or I'm constantly feeling like gassy. And all of those things are not something that generally, if you have a healthy gut, you should be living with. So that's when we deep dive. We deep dive into your medication. We deep dive into your OTC medication. And then at that point, we can probably identify something that we can change. Hear the full conversation, plus some fascinating facts about how gut health affects so much more than just your stomach on Beyond the Script,

Starting point is 00:15:50 Investors Edge. The last bastion of quality programming. With Gary Coltbaum. It doesn't get better than this. Once again to Investors Edge, as we continue with Part 2, of our educational series, these two parts on bare markets. So we were just telling you, there are characteristics of bear markets you need to know about.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Very important ones. Because you know what we hear from Wall Street. We have 100 years of history. And we're doing this show in August of 2019. And the down in S&P are down 5, 6% of small midcaps are down, maybe 11, 12%, foreign markets worse. But we've seen it before. but just to amuse you and amuse us, please listen,
Starting point is 00:16:45 just in case we ever get a real bear market again, which we guarantee you will happen. They forget to tell you about Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch, Wachovia, Countrywide Financial, City Group, which, by the way, is still down 90% from the highs of the high. They forgot to mention from the year 2000, Nortel Networks or Lucent or WorldCom. You know, these names I am mentioning are go-to big-cap names that all went by-bye.
Starting point is 00:17:45 There are hundreds more that they don't want you to remember. But we can promise you this. in the next bare markets that we have throughout the rest of history, we're going to see a lot more of that because the world changes. Companies change. Technology companies become obsolete. Have you noticed recently
Starting point is 00:18:14 what the retailers have been doing? Have you noticed Macy's? Macy's. We're not talking Sears Holdings and Kmart here. We're talking Macy's. All these retailers are being obliterated. Why?
Starting point is 00:18:35 The world changed. Online changed the world. So we must recognize from bull to bear markets, massive change happens. And some of the greatest stocks of the prior bull market get destroyed in the bare market.
Starting point is 00:19:01 market. There have been studies done. On average, past growth leaders will drop 70%. We are not making that number up. How can that be, Gary? How could these big leaders drop 70%. It's simple. Because in the bull market, they were big leaders. And greatness only lasts so long. And as companies grow bigger and bigger, something always eventually happens, growth slows. And when growth slows, the stock slows and tops and the market recognize it. And since these stocks were so overowned and over-loved, they were also over-leveraged, so that margin has to come off and all that's left to do is sell. So these people just telling you think long-term, fine.
Starting point is 00:20:08 But you better think long-term. with things that continue to work long term. Because you never know. I, your host, if somebody told me in 2006 that by 2009, Merrill Lynch and Lehman and Countrywide, and Wachovia and Bear Stearns would be gone, I would have laughed in their face.
Starting point is 00:20:46 So you need to know this. and not listen to people, listen to price. Next, the rules completely change in bull and bear markets. In bull markets, things are forgiven. Valuations can go nuts. Companies with 10 million in revenues can trade at $5 billion market caps. fake meat companies with 200 million in sales can have 15 billion dollar market caps
Starting point is 00:21:31 and they lose money bull markets are about greed and froth and speculation bull markets very often have valuations thrown out the window and all it's about
Starting point is 00:21:59 is people buying at any price and any valuation, just in hopes that somebody's going to pay a higher price for their stock. And yes, we can spend a few hundred hours with examples on this. Bear markets are the exact opposite. While bull markets are about greed, froth, speculation, bare markets are on fear. And the continued building up of fear. fear and because of that fear the curtains will come down on valuation valuation returns back to the norm and any company losing money will get squashed any company gary any company gary any company how do we know this
Starting point is 00:23:11 the study of bull and bear markets throughout history if you ever have a chance to study the charts from 08 or 2000 to 03 you would not believe how far down things went on average stock
Starting point is 00:23:39 now know where we're saying the next bear market's going to be like that but there's a chance there is. But even a 25 to 30% sustained bear market will do massive damage. Up next, characteristics of a bear market. We have more. That will be up next on NISTI investor's edge. Hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM.

With Gary Colbomb. It comes highly recommended.
Starting point is 00:28:07 You're going to feel better if you talk to him. And welcome once again to Investors Edge. Thanks for being with us today again. This is the educational show on bare markets. This is the second part of two days. We are doing this show in mid-August, and we think it's apropos because we've had 10 years where we've read. really have not had a bare market because of central banks and maybe we're getting closer,
Starting point is 00:28:37 maybe not. So we just finished talking to about how bull markets are made of greed, froth, speculation. Bare markets are based on fear, but also despair and a loss of hope. Remember, we're winding our way through the bare market. 5% down, we're good. 10% and it's happened before 15, 20
Starting point is 00:29:08 Hey Joe I thought you told me it will only be a small correction well then you get worse but before we go there if bull markets are about ridiculous valuations guess what happens in bare markets as the curtain comes down
Starting point is 00:29:30 and valuation goes to the norm in real bare markets valuation will go to weigh under valuation. Prices you could not believe. And even though finally you realize, damn, these things are undervalued, they keep going lower in price. Because you're in a bear, a real bear.
Starting point is 00:30:09 And you now have some stocks down 50. 60, 70, while the major indices are down 30, 35. And it's at that point, you can't lose any more. And then so many people are actually selling here because of loss of hope and despair. Now, some people say, screw it, I don't care if it goes to zero. But others have to do something about their wealth. since they did not know the characteristics of tops and bear markets, just get me out.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Just get me out. Which gets us closer to the last legs of the bear market. It is despair. It's where. On TV now, the same people that were telling you, everything's fine down 5% are telling you, are telling you the end of the world's at hand. Without naming names,
Starting point is 00:31:26 back in the despair of 0708, a certain very famous pundit who was bullish all the way down and calling bottoms all the way down told you to be out of the market for the next five years and within a month, markets bottomed. But if you were savvy enough, if you were smart enough,
Starting point is 00:31:53 if you had a great eye and you studied enough. You were out way in advance and you didn't have to deal with that despair, which is a characteristic of late stages of a bare market. Back in 2008, I went to the bank and took out cash. We got so worried. So these great leading stocks that everybody had to own and got so overowned by the big institutional crowd, And if you looked at the best mutual funds, it was their biggest positions, all the great mutual funds.
Starting point is 00:32:37 Well, guess what? Things changed. Things turned. Over-owned, over-loved, over-leveraged. That's why you get those big losses. So hope and despair. Articles about the market never coming back. No, really.
Starting point is 00:33:03 The end of the stock market. World's going into depression. That's what you start hearing. As major indices are down in the 30s, average stocks are down in the 40s and 50s. And by the way, ladies and gentlemen, let me just intervene very quick and say, these things do happen. These bare markets do happen. I know it has not happened in 10 years.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Just remember they do. A couple of times a year, I will spend five hours, shut my office down, and go look at past bare markets to remind myself, they happen and to study them over and over again to make sure I don't miss them. And guess what? The fourth quarter of 2018, we nailed for you guys because all the characteristics of a top and in the entry of a bare market were occurring and we nailed it again. But of course, Central Banks came in and did their thing as the market went to its default
Starting point is 00:34:06 setting and just turned back up. But I will promise you, one day, one day, it won't be that easy. And you better be ready. So now, we've had several vicious rallies. But every time we rallied, we rallied back up into and maybe above the 50-day moving average for a bit of time. And everyone fails. And the rallies are vicious. And it sucks people in, gets them all excited.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Pundits are calling for the bottom for the umpteenth time. And since you are so hopeful, you believe them every time, even though they led you. you down the wrong path every time. So what do we do? Well, remember again, listen carefully. That last characteristic of a bare market, the final innings of a bare market, are a loss of hope and quite the despair. And when you turn on business channels, you see it in the faces, and you'll see people on there that told you don't worry at 5% down, now telling you to worry. believe it or not that's good news no really that's good news
Starting point is 00:35:39 and markets will not turn until everybody that wants to sell is sold out Gary how will we ever know how will we ever know when markets are sold out we'll see it
Starting point is 00:36:06 because just as we told you characteristic of bull and bear markets and characteristics of bear markets well we're not going to let you hang on the characteristics of how bare markets end so the first characteristic again is the toughest one because of human nature
Starting point is 00:36:31 everybody's bearish human nature is we want to be part of the masses it's tough to fight the masses but in markets when the massives are so depressed, when everybody is bearish, when you can feel it reverberate, and you feel it in your bones and you're scared out of your wits,
Starting point is 00:37:03 that's when it's time to double down on price in the market. Because the market's out to screw the masses at the most inopportunity. time. So we have to have a microscope at this time because everybody's bearish, but guess what everybody's bearish means? It means that everybody is close to being sold out. And when there's nobody left to sell, therein lies the end of the bear market. And if you are smart enough and good enough and have a keen enough eye to know it, you can be right there ready for it. So, up next, we describe the top of the bull market. It's time to describe the bottom of the bear market. That's up next. On this, the one and only, investors are. We're listening to
Starting point is 00:38:42 What are we waiting for? Well, what are you waiting for? One, two, ready, go. Action! In The Gester's Edge With Gary Culper. Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM.

Starting point is 00:42:08 One, two, ready, go. Action! In the Gester's Edge. With Gary Culpa. investors ed as we take you to the end of our two-day two-part series on characteristics of bare markets now as we said at the end of the last segment we don't want to let you hang the most important characteristic in the late innings of bear markets is something that you want to fight against because we all want to be with the crowd but you have to fight it as much as you can. Because at the end of bear markets, in that late inning, everyone is bearish. Everyone is bearish.
Starting point is 00:43:32 And we're not talking to perma bears. We're talking about the people that were bullish all the way down and in the late innings turned bearish. That is number one. First and foremost, you are not going to want to believe the market is going into the bottoming phase. That's number one. Number two. Price. So, remember what we said? At the top, stocks led the sectors, sectors laid the market. Well, if stocks led down, what do you think they do at the end of bear markets? They lead up. So, first the indices.
Starting point is 00:44:35 First the indices. Well, they first have to stop going down, right? But it doesn't happen at once because bottoming is a process. It's not an event. So the Dow, the S&P, NASDAQ, whatever you look at, will hit a price and rally up, but then come down and retest. And sometimes go below that price, but buy a little bit, but come back quickly above it, and rally up, and come back down and retest, and rally up. and come back down and retest
Starting point is 00:45:09 and rally up and come back down and for four or five months or three months or two months you can take a nice little pen and draw a line underneath price where it went and you will see that in and around that area
Starting point is 00:45:27 it stops but something else happens while that's going on while the indices are bottoming the next big leaders of the next bull market start to take shape. Really? Well, we're scanning 1,500 stocks a day, and all of a sudden we find, while the major indices are still at their lows,
Starting point is 00:45:54 we find 30 names that hit their lows two months ago. And I've already in the process of stair-stepping their way up, heavy volume on the upside, light volume on the pullback. Their 50-day moving averages, instead of ascending, flatten out, and start turning up before the indices.

Starting point is 00:48:07 As the reason why they didn't break out of range sooner is because the market held them back. They shot out of a cannon. And that's why it's so imperative when everybody's depressed and nobody wants in to work double time because your biggest, most gigantic money are made in the first few months of a new bull market as the great names were held back.
