Should be out of the market by 1st half 2012.....hopefully the bull market will last longer till end 2012......my guess there would be a black swan, a kinda perfect storm which would cause significant drop in stock market. Initially I was thinking maybe the best time to buy after selling out would be 2014, 2015......but if the market drops sharply enough and we have inflation due to balance sheet expansion by central banks.......leading to companies making record profits.....the entry date to buy again might be sooner.

Nasdaq breakout but US market breadth shows weakness
26th March: A breakout from channel resistance on the Nasdaq last week was an encouraging signal for the US markets. However, new 52 week highs on the NYSE are still modest when compared with those of last year when the NYA was at comparable levels. This is a sign of bearish divergence which could indicate that the current rally is weaker than we might have hoped.
Europe was rather lacklustre last week as were emerging markets as represented by EEM. In Asia Korea, Singapore and Malaysia still look strong. But Hongkong and India are looking weak and dangerous. Thailand has also turned on strong resistance and could easily top at the current level despite long term bullish targets.

Forget about the Iran-Israel's conflict causing an oil spike or the EuroZone crisis (which seems to be the story of yesterday in a maniac market), the next black swan could be the inevitable abrupt devaluation of the YEN that will hit the exporting economies (China, South Korea and Spore of course! - right in our backyard) hard. Couple this with a rise of FED interest rates and hot money starts flowing out - take this double hit combo!!

I am still trying to digest an article which suggests a strong yen rally.....
part of the article....
From the early 1960s almost, Japan began recording current-account surpluses. Unlike Germany, it always invoiced in dollars.
So Japan is short its own currency, and has an enormous private-sector hoard of foreign assets. If the Nikkei falls, and your hedge and private-equity funds fall, pension funds in Tokyo will have fewer yen assets, but their liabilities will be the same. So they'd have to sell some overseas dollar assets and retrade them back to yen. If we have a series of bad events from China to Europe, that will express itself in a very strong yen rally.

hi Behappyalways,
all signs indeed point to a strong yen. That is why a sudden yen depreciation (apparently the only way to revive its comptitiveness, according to the owner) is a black swan n we can seldom predict or time its coming.
