We've all made lousy economic/market calls in our time, not least yours truly. However, those within the mainstream spotlight, sure often like to make reference to 'it' not happening within 'their life time'.
Gartman's oil call has of course failed, with WTIC printing $76.90 last year. Its difficult not to see some kind of recession and/or crisis within the next few years. As for 'no more rate hikes', that sounds like crazy talk, but then... we're in crazy times.
As of writing - April 11th 2019, Kudlow, Yellen, and Gartman, are all still alive and kicking.
