Market
7What we know so far
- Bull markets last longer than bear markets
- Price appreciation on bull markets is higher than
the correction on bear markets even in the worst
case (i.e. 1929 Crash) - History shows that to be classified as a crash
the market has to drop by more than 20...as of
this time the market has dropped 10.93 from the
highs of 14,000.
8Eliminating the Crest of Tidal Wave Scenario
- They say either DOW goes to
- 10,000 (Scenario 1) ---40 Decline
- Comparable to Black Monday of 1987 and 1974 Crash
( Major Gas shortage and Highest Unemployment in
history) - 7,000 (Scenario 2) ---- 50 Decline
- Dust Bowl Famine 1937 and World Depression
- DOES THIS ARGUMENT STAND AT PRESENT WORLD
CONDITIONS???
9My View -----US to remain range bound with a
good possibility of breaking new highs if certain
resistance levels are broken. -----But
current decline (10.93) classifies this as a
bullish correction.
- Why I remain more positive than the extreme
bears??? - The run up from the bottom of the Millenium bear
market is anything BUT a corrective up move as
what they are saying. Its a clear impulsive
upmove. - As of today, the current market decline cannot
be classified as a crash but just a correction. - The near term charts indicates a break of the SHS
formation and an upward break of the down trend
line from the highs coupled with a potential
inverted head and shoulders formation. - Historical correlation between interest rates and
stock prices indicate that given the break of the
long term uptrend of US Treasuries interest
rates are poised to go down and should be good
for equities. - If we are to say that the 14,000 level is the all
time high, then it would remain in history as
the SHORTEST bull phase in both time and price
appreciation (up only by 94 or so). THAT has
not been the case in history as typical fifth
waves would be a prolonged period in both price
and time.
