It really felt like a day of two-halves today after a lack-lustre Asian session and a weak European morning. The Nikkei was again a talking point (or at least the JPY was) but Shanghai too saw a bit of volatility as we flirted toward the 3k level early afternoon only to recover by the close. […]
The Dow failed to elect any Monthly or Quarterly Bullish Reversals. It did elect two of the three Weekly Bullish Reversals, leaving the 3rd intact. We provided these numbers previously, warning not to expect follow-through without electing all three. “In the Dow, we have a cluster of Weekly Bullish Reversals starting at 17680, 17750, and […]
The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) has clearly targeted Putin, however, it is his aids rather than him personally who were revealed in the Panama Papers. The political agenda of ICIJ is called into question by this action. Icelandic Prime Minister Sigmundur David Gunnlaugsson resigned just two days after the papers were released. Reports say that 12 […]
Federal Election Commission records show that hedge fund billionaire George Soros donated $343,400 to the Hillary Victory Fund and poured a whopping $7 million into Priorities USA, the Super Pac supporting Hillary to further her occupation of the Oval Office. Donald Sussman of Paloma Partners also gave $343,400 to the Hillary Victory Fund and donated […]
Everything has a cycle. The difference between the Triple Crown and Villanova is that it was actually substantial. In the case of the Triple Crown, nobody won it in 31 years, and I was able to work out the cyclical pattern of the event. Each sports team has a different cycle. Therefore, in the case […]
Oil was blamed for the majority of today’s equity weakness but there was no new news and the reason was a little baffling! The Nikkei broke the 16k level and then fell another 300 points quite sharply. In late US trading, it lost an additional 150 points and is currently trading around the 15,500 level. […]
I am not a sports fan. I do not even have time for TV. However, I am a student of cyclical patterns. When it came to the Triple Crown, I looked at the cyclical pattern and said it was time and he will win. Well, I did it again. Villanova won the championship in 1985. […]
A lot of emails have been coming in with regard to the Panama Papers. Let me say this from the outset — Panama has been the key place to establish offshore accounts for decades. This was not a government hack. The German daily Suddeutsche Zeitung obtained the stash of records from an anonymous source and shared […]
QUESTION: Marty, I think your recent gold call has made me understand your model much better. Your timing is the key. You gave the weekly Bullish at 1287.50 in your report and the timing. You said that 1309 is possible if we elect that weekly bullish prior to March 14th week. Gold rallied and stopped […]
Fridays NFP in the US did not help support the Nikkei despite the DOW’s strong closing rally. We did see a bounce off of the 16k figure but given that the Chinese markets were closed, holding any gains on the day proved just too lonesome. Late news on Friday about oil production continues to haunt […]
