“60 Years on the Street:
What Six Decades of Market History Tell Us About the Next 15"

Jeffrey Hirsch, CEO of Hirsch Holdings, editor-in-chief of the Stock Trader’s Almanac, and publisher of Almanac Investor Newsletter

In 1966, Yale Hirsch published the first Stock Trader’s Almanac and gave Wall Street some of its most enduring tools: the January Barometer, the Santa Claus Rally, the Best Six Months Switching Strategy, and the 4-Year Presidential Cycle. Sixty years later, they still work. Jeff Hirsch — who took the helm from his father — marks the anniversary with a retrospective on the calls that built the Almanac’s legacy, and a forward look at where the market goes next.
Attending this session will allow you to learn:
- Revisit the biggest Almanac calls of the last six decades — from the 1974 bottom to the 1982 breakout, the 1987 warning, the 2009 turn, and the Super Boom Dow 38,820 forecast that hit a bullseye on schedule
- See why the core indicators — Best Six Months, January Barometer, Santa Claus Rally, 4-Year Cycle — have outperformed across every regime since 1950 and why they still matter in an AI-driven market
- Get Jeff’s 15-year outlook through 2040: the next secular cycle, the inflation regime ahead, demographic and technology drivers, and a long-term Dow trajectory built on the same cycle analysis that powered Super Boom
- Plus: his 2026 midyear update, top stock picks and sector ETF trades, TACO Trade and Trump Seasonal Cycle positioning, and how to play the midterm year weak spot/sweet spot transition into the historic post-midterm rally.
