Veteran advisers says market won't bottom before 2012 if Obama is elected President

"We are far ahead of schedule ... This major bear market could see a firm bottom with Dow 4,000 to 5,400, and a yield of 6% to 8%. This would also call for an S&P 500 yield of 5% to 7%, and a range of 360 to 480. Those lows might come in 2009 or 2010. A worst case might be a bottom around 2012 after four disastrous years of an Obama administration. Investors are scared to death of a strong move to socialism."

These "Veteran Advisers" as they are called all want to tell you how to invest your money. Why don't they stop wasting their time and follow their own advice and make a billion themselves.
Here is some great advice from a "Veteran Advisor" .........don't listen to any "Veteran Advisors".
"Investors are scared to death of a strong move to socialism"............I got news for him, the US already has the largest single socialist program on the face of this earth. Some brilliance.

This Veteran Advisor's Ignorance is indeed refreshing,,,LOL What is he saying about the current crew who got us into this Mess?

On Sept 17, 2008: Senator John McCain said, as he had many times before, that he believed the fundamentals of the economy were "strong."Hours later he backpedaled, explaining that he had meant that American workers were Strong.

Barrons: The Next President's Impact on Stocks
By AVI SALZMAN

Special report: Which candidate will help the markets more?

BARACK OBAMA SOARED in the presidential election polls last week, taking a clear lead over his rival John McCain. And stocks had one of their worst weeks ever.

But pinning that stock-market bust on the growing likelihood of an Obama victory is a dubious proposition given the many other factors affecting the stock market these days.

That said, a sweeping Democratic victory does raise a red flag for some stock watchers. An Obama win, particularly coupled with a big enough victory by Democrats to give them a filibuster-beating 60-member army in the Senate, could cause consternation in the markets.

That's largely because the Illinois senator will seek to increase both taxes on capital gains and stock dividends.

Democratic dominance in Congress would likely lead to more pro-labor policies, for instance, and could threaten free trade policy, which Democrats have criticized during the campaign.
