The worst two-day decline for the Dow Jones industrial average since September 2016 was not the beginning of the end of the bull market, the chief investment strategist at Raymond James told CNBC on Wednesday.
The U.S. futures were pointing to a rebound at the open on Wednesday after sharp losses on Monday and Tuesday.

"We actually think the secular bull market began in October 2008. That's when the majority of stocks bottomed," Wall Street veteran Jeffrey Saut said on "Squawk Box."

Saut's timetable for the start of the bull market after the Great Recession is about five months ahead of when the Dow and S&P 500 hit bottom in March 2009.

Either way, the market has been generally moving higher for about nine years, the second oldest bull market on record without at least a 20 percent drop in the S&P. During that time, the indexes have gained around 300 percent, not including dividends.

Saut, who has been in finance for nearly 50 years, said his long-term model has been positive since October 2008, but short-term there were some signals of "potential downside vulnerability" in February. Saut's modeling has been pretty accurate over the years.

"Sentiment got too optimistic," he said. "So over the past few weeks, we pulled in our horns a little bit, but it's just in the context of a secular bull market … that has years left to run."

The term secular bull market is financial-speak for a bull market trend that's happening over time.

"These things tend to last 14-plus years. So we're nine years into this one. I think you've got at least another five, six, seven years left in this thing, and not many people believe it," Saut said.

Katie Stockton, chief technical analyst at BTIG who tends to look at shorter-term trends, said the greatest risk of the "shallow pullback" of the past two sessions is market sentiment turning too negative.

"I think we need several more percent to the downside," Stockton told CNBC in an interview along with Saut. "That would help work off those sentiment excesses that the market has. And, of course, it would be associated with market volatility. But it should be very short-lived."

But Stockton, whose calls on the market have been quite accurate lately , said she does not believe stocks are in for a major correction, which is defined as a 10 percent decline from recent highs.

The latest leg of the long-running stock bull market kicked into high gear after the November 2016 election of Donald Trump as president. Since then, the Dow and the Nasdaq have gained more than 40 percent each, while the S&P 500 has advanced more than 30 percent.

Agree Bernie-intend to buy Barclays at 50p (as I did during 07-08 crash-always worth waiting for). Politically banks will not be allowed to prosper at expense of customers anymore, US surprises, Brexit and overdue correction makes this a cert for a serious correction later in the year.

The FTSE 100 fell significantly during the trading session on Tuesday, breaking down below the 7600 level. As an area that has been supportive in the past, and we could bounce from here, but I think that given the volume that we have seen that we could also drift lower. I recognize the 7500 level as even more support, so it’s not until we break down below there that I think the uptrend has changed. Ultimately, the market should continue to go higher, perhaps reaching towards the 7800 level. This is a market that should continue to be noisy, but with the strengthening British pound, we are starting to see market participants selling the FTSE as it makes British exports more expensive.
Longer-term, I believe there is plenty of support underneath, and I think that we will eventually find a reason to go higher. However, I would stand on the sidelines as far as buying is concerned, as the markets have shown so much in the way of noise. That noise continues to keep traders at bay, so I think that the noise will continue to be a situation where you can take advantage of based upon value, but I think that it’s very difficult to jump in and start buying with both fists, I think that you need to add slowly if you are trying to build a bit of a position, but I prefer to wait for a supportive daily candle to get involved, or some type of impulsive move to the upside with volume.

NY Boy: remove the - to get 25 and you still might be disappointed. Look at how BARC has performed over the last quarter century. It has gone nowhere.

The price today is where it was in 1995.

Hey, I will tell a short story which might help with investor sentiment: "A debtor issued a dude cheque to his creditor so he can buy time knowing that he had no such money in his account. The creditor tried to cash the cheque and it bounced due to lack of sufficient fund to honour the cheque. Now the creditor, incrementally made small payments to the account until the cheque could honoured. Now the debtor had not been aware that he had close to nothing in his account to live on. He was desolate" Lesson to investors is that Tiger was probably secretly building stake in BARCS and just below the point he needed to disclose his holding to the market. Once he had reached this point, he has already made his money and he would promptly reduce his position or liquidate it

We're ....investors. We join the dots, read between the lines and we put it all together to get the full story. It's just part of what we do.

A hedgie takes a position. They promote it, and they promote it globally. They go big on this one. News lines traverse thousands of miles. The price reacts. A great success.

...now what do you suppose might come next my investing chums?

This story of US investor buying into Barclays remind of what I learned so far of news in the public domain. They are not meant to favour PIs but to suck them in so that the institutional investor will sell. Same may buy at a lower price and repeat this cycle to the detriment of PIs with little knowledge of what is going on.With a profit of 16% or more, a less emotional institutional investor would take profit and watch the share price drop to his set buying price. I believe that the sell of yesterday may have proved my point.Be careful what you read in the papers.We should have been informed when Tiger Investment started accumulating when the share price was 180p
