I think it is highly unlikely anyone can reliably tell us when the stock market will go up or down. I don't blame the guy above. If anyone makes a prediction of up or down, some will be right and some will be wrong but no one will be right all of the time.

Maybe better luck doing a lot of research on a specific company or working for a specific company (insider trading info) but I have most of my money in index funds because after looking at the track records of managed funds and with only about 20% of them beating the market (after their expenses), even with there big budgets, looking at everything available, and hiring some of the best people, it seems really unlikely to come out ahead.
