In Germany, we have Heiko Thieme as the worst permabull I know.
He lives in New York, but talks frequently to the german public on radio and tv (in the last months less frequently) always saying: buy, buy, buy. He says, he is a fund manager, but I think is is more a writer and lecturer.

He is profiled on the website of the german magazine "Focus" (similar to Time or Newsweek) as a pro in US stocks, but his standard account is down 50%.

About 1 year ago, when the bear market already had begun, he remained bullish, not only for the US, but also for Japan and Europe.
He is the typical product of a long bull market, someone who knew for his lifetime that the only thing you have to do is buy (and hold). He cannot understand the rules of the game have changed. Every long running bull or bear market produces a selection of people who were successful during that period, an evolutionary process which stops at the turning point.
