Update- Market Metrics: America’s 7 year bull market

The US bull market officially passed the 7 year mark yesterday since the Dow Jones Industrial Index bottomed out at 6,547 in 2009 after having reached a all-time high close of 14,164 on the 9th October 2007.

The Dow Jones Industrial Index has gone on to post a new all-time high close of 18,312 which was reached on the 19th May 2015.

By comparison the Australian All Ordinaries Index closed at 3,111 on the 6th March 2009 which was a 54.6% drop from its 6,853 all-time high close on the 1st November 2007.

The good news is that we did achieve a mini peak last year at 5,937 on 25th March 2015 but we are still nowhere near passing the 6,800 mark after 7 years.

The question now is how much longer can the US bull market run before it busts? And what do you do about it?
