ECON: Econometric Stock Market Forecasting Models Forecast S&P 500, T Bond and T Bill interest rates, and inflation. Once a month you enter 8 numbers and get statistically optimized forecasts for 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months in the future. There is also an Asset Allocation routine which tells you how much of each asset to hold with conservative and aggressive strategies. It's a menu-driven program for IBM-PC and compatibles. The models were derived by linear regression to 25 years of market history 1963 to 1989. The fit to this data is remarkable, R=.80 for the S&P 500 twelve-month forecast. Putting your money into the best asset (stock, bond, or money market) based on Econ's forecasts would have given a 17% per year compounded return. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. The 8 numbers you enter monthly are S&P 500 close, Prime rate, T Bond rate, T Bill rate, CPI, Unemployment %, S&P 500 dividend %, and S&P 500 P/E ratio. These numbers are available in Barron's and elsewhere. Econ predicted all major bull and bear markets in the period 1963 to 1993. This includes the 1982 bull market, the crash of 1987, and the 1991 bull market, which is outside the regression set. It predicted the drop in interest rates and inflation in 1991 to 1993 also. People often ask if Econ is based on technical, or on fundamental analysis. It is a combination of both, based on statistical analysis. To enter the models, each variable had to pass an F test showing 99% confidence that the chosen correlation was not due to random chance. Econ is shareware written and distributed by DC Econometrics.
