One problem with herd theory is that it doesn't take account of the fact that there is more than one herd. The Hampton herd that included Fed chairmen, like Greenspan and Bernanke, has little in common with the Wal-Mart-shopper herd. That might account for the delay in the internet bubble crash, predicted by wave theory for a decade earlier than it actually happened.
I can understand you pain, but think it this way. FED started printing money on enormous amount in 1987 which it did first time. A lot of economists with sensible knowledge went wrong because they didn't see this happening and didn't include in their estimates (Without FED printing so much money). Now they know how FED will respond, and thats improve chances of them being right.
No, they are Keynesian idiots looking for green shoots.
In the 1930s we had the gold standard in the world but now it's cash trash fiat currency backed by nothing and they follow the idiot Keynes who like central banks & big govt and printing money, now digital. The difference between $1 & $100 bill is 2 '00' and so on. Central banks & govts herd resulting in inflation then hyperinflation. Their solution to a drinking problem (aka easy credit) is more even cheaper credit (ie more booze).

over the top and mostly wrong.....
for e.g bob managed to be wrong only for 13 years when he kept on being bearish
while the dow went form 1650 in 1987 to
12000 in 2000......but dont worry about dear bob ......he kept on making millions by telling others how to !!!
