We get the year started with yet another most informative and insightful interview (my third) with the Chief Investment Strategist for Ned Davis Research as we discussed his year ahead outlook, one that includes an up first quarter followed by a likely mid year major correction culminating in a year end rally. Such a scenario will require a much more actively adept investor seeking to generate alpha. We also explored the context within which the current market falls: the cyclical bull within a secular bear market.

The length of the interview is 14 minutes 50 seconds.
