Big Call Bennett

"BIG CALL BENNETT" is how Peter Switzer would introduce Clifford, weekly, on the Switzer Show. On the 10th of March, 2009, Clifford emphatically declared, and for the first time, that a New Grand Bull Market had just begun in US stocks. It was just two days after the absolute low. A champion of the bull market for the next ten years, Clifford's forecasts of a 5-15 year bull market and a Dow Jones target of 30,000 have proven themselves.
