Time Until Full Employment Recovery Post-Recession
Economists are looking at the wrong data set: Instead of “ALL CYCLICAL
RECESSIONS, try substituting CREDIT CRISIS RECESSIONS.
Hence, why they seem to be perplexed by weak job creation and soft GDP.

Duration and Intensity of Bear Market Rallies
Rally averages over 12 and 24 months, going back to 1929
After 12 months, returns range from 21.4% (1987) to 121.4% (1932), followed by 81.4% (1935). Remove the post-depression outliers, and 1982 becomes the next most intense move at 58.3%.
That is, until the 2009 rally. After 12 months, it stood at 68.6%. The average of these rallies at the 1 year mark was 47.3%.
From one to two years, the rallies strengthened to 56.1%. Note that the two post-depression rallies eventually give up all their gains. (See S&P 90, lower right)
2009 is now the outlier. After just 23 months, this market is up nearly 100%. 1974 is the runner up at 65.7%.
How intense is this rally? The current run is 50% greater than the next closest one, and nearly 2X the 2 year average.
~~~
How much of this is attributable to the Fed? We can only guess, but if only half of the excess gains over prior rally averages are attributable to the Fed, it means that the US Central Bank has artificially created several trillion dollars in market capitalization.
