Exactly. Thus the bullish comment.

Earnings Scorecard: For Q1 2018 (with 91% of the companies in the S&P 500 reporting actual results for the quarter), 78% of S&P 500 companies have reported a positive EPS surprise and 77% have reported a positive sales surprise. If 78% is the final number for the quarter, it will mark the highest percentage since FactSet began tracking this metric in Q3 2008.

Remind us of that when the stock market declines.

I find the first response on the link you posted insightful, in which a respondent notes: "You ommitted half of the data. This might have been true pre-1990. But after 1990, year-over-year change in earnings led the stock market"
And sure enough, the chart only goes up to 1990.
Yet another apparent case of Igy not reading beyond the headline. How lazy can you be?

That's definitely what my eyes behold. Nice of you to admit it.
We should start another contest.
How many more years before he realizes, "It's Different this Time".

If you really know how it's supposed to 'work' buddy, why have your funds had dismal returns all these years? A little humility goes a long way sometimes."
And another very wisely pointed out that markets are forwardly looking , not back. And another mentioned how liquidity in the markets through central bank policy, etc. is more significant than past quarter earnings.
So, has little to with point made, just snipping like most comments here and factually incorrect I might add.
is the part about Hussman's funds having dismal returns all these years factually incorrect?
Pertinent point since so much of his advice is referenced here.

Seattle,
OK. Perhaps you or the writer you quoted can explain why the market was not forward looking in September of 1929, or March of 2000 or more recently October of 2007? In regards to central bank policy have you heard yet there is decreasing liquidity?
Not sure what the relevance is of the comments you quoted, but certainly not well thought out.
Igy
that's too far back for me to start studying. And if i were to research to that extent, i would be focusing on the market in it's entirety, not at particular facets or only on downturns. If you want to apply blinders, you can find snipets of the market that prove most any point you want to make.

The relevance is obviously to the market. Why would anyone take investment advice from someone who has been an abject failure at it?
Has no relevance at all as I pointed out. Ignorant comments that of course you can’t understand. About as relevant as “you will run faster if you run more, run faster and don’t get hurt.” So go back to football where you belong.

In regards to cutting of liquidity, the demand for cash has fallen as well, so less impact as a result. The two need to be considered together. Seems reasonable as companies are so cash rich these days (tax cut consequence, etc.)

Seattle,
Actually not true. A few very large companies have a lot of cash, but all of those same companies have a lot of debt. So your statement is factually incorrect in it’s implication.
