Former Value Line chairman, Sam Eisenstadt, has a model that is predicting a 12% gain in the S&P 500 in the next 6 months.

If you read the article, he claims a 0.33 r-squared value for the model since the 1950's. Not great, but better than most models out there. Still, it does not explain 67% of the variability in six month returns, which leaves a lot of uncertainty.
