This great long-term forecast model displays the annual and total return expected for the next 10 years with a high degree of confidence
This advanced model makes a forecast for the next 12 months, next 3 years, next 5 years, and next 10 years, with dividends reinvested.
For each period, it displays the annual and total return.
It shows what the probability of each event happening is. Probability is a way to show how often an event will happen.
And it shows what the valuation of each event is.
Here is an example on July 1, 2018:
The annual return expected for the next 10 years will be 3.8%, corresponding to a 45% total return. This is a high probability. If the total return corresponds to 45% in 10 years, then the US stock market will be at fair value.
If the total return corresponds to 54% in 10 years, then the US stock market will be overvalued by 10%. There is a 25% chance on a quarterly basis that the US stock market total return will be above 54%. This is a medium probability.
If the total return corresponds to 26% in 10 years, then the US stock market will be undervalued by -20%. There is a 5% chance on a quarterly basis that the US stock market total return will be below 26%. This is a low probability.
Here is another example using the graph.
The total return expected for the next 5 years will be 12.5%. This is a high probability. If the total return corresponds to 12.5% in 5 years, then the US stock market will be at fair value.
If the total return corresponds to 31.5% in 5 years, then the US stock market will be overvalued by 20%. There is a 5% chance on a quarterly basis that the US stock market total return will be above 31.5%. This is a low probability.
If the total return corresponds to 3.7% in 5 years, then the US stock market will be undervalued by -10%. There is a 25% chance on a quarterly basis that the US stock market total return will be below 3.7%. This is a medium probability.
This powerful long-term forecast model is updated daily. It has a great 96% correlation with the US stock market on a quarterly basis since 1970 and an R² of 0.92. It means that 92 percent of the US stock market variance is predictable by the flows of data used.
