Default He correctly predicted two stock market crashes. So why aren't people listening?

You have to see it from Bob Rodriguez's perspective. Twice he has spotted an approaching storm. Twice he has warned the world. Twice he has been pooh-poohed and seen investors abandon the two mutual funds he managed. Twice he has taken steps to shield his clients from the coming crisis.

And twice -- first with Internet stocks in the 1990s, and then with the financial crisis of 2008 -- Rodriguez has been right...

It would be interesting to know how many stock market crashes he predicted that did not happen; if I remember correctly, bears predict market crashes all the time, every year and then pat themselves on the back when they are proven correct.
