The three things that could end this bull market

Those who try to call the top of bottom of a market usually get it wrong, but that doesn't mean you should stand idly by and wait to see what happens. Here's what to watch out for - and how to prepare.

The investment gods are a tough bunch. Just when you think you've nailed a winner, they shake you back to reality with a bump. And trying to nail tops and bottoms is very difficult to do - so much so that even the pros have trouble sometimes.

Take Elaine Garzarelli, for example, who accurately called the 1987 crash. Or Ralph Accampora, whose prediction that the Dow would reach 7,000 was considered laughable at the time. Despite calling these major events, they soon found themselves back on the wrong side of the fence for years.
