Weekly outlook Aug 29, 2016

The week just ended was down as expected.  Dow down the most (%) while the Nasdaq was down a small amount (%).  I had hoped (thought) we may see a larger move.

The coming week looks like another down week with a stronger move down as the dominant 4.5 month cycle moves mostly sideways in a topping action.  The other cycles are down.  Down move should complete by end of the week so if you are short (Inverse ETF?) you may want to clear position before week end.

  1. Between 1683 and 1907 (224 years) there were 26 "panic" events. That is an event every 8.615384615 years.

    There are 365.25 days in a year (.25 to account for leap years). 365.25 x 8.615384615 = 3146.76923062 (which is 1,000 x pi).

    Pi is the number of radii in a circle's circumference (the perfect cycle is a circle?).

    More later on the "pi" cycle

  2. So is there a cycle 3146.8 days long (8.62 years)? Turns out there is a 4.3 year cycle or 2 cycles in 8.62 years. Each cycle advances 2.15 years and falls 2.15 years.

    Turns out 6 x 8.6 = 51.6 years or a K Wave (google Kondratiev wave). Cycles (waves based on a math constant "pi"........

    Last 4.3 cycle bottom was 10/07/2015 and next top is 12/01/17.

    1. The 9 month cycle is down, the 4.5 month (20 week) dominant cycle is ready to turn down, other cycles up near term start turning down in October. Probably OK holding an "inverse" next 10 weeks but consider using stop loss orders.

  7. No expert on oil, but it seems to be trading mostly in a range between $40-60. Cycle is 5+ months and is trading above a recent bottom.

  9. Excellent question... Not sure I have an answer. If we consider 20% correction a "Bear" market it could be as early as mid November which should be a "nested" bottom for the nine month and shorter cycles. We should know from market action over the next month or so if this looks probable.

    We know now that risks increase over the next couple of months and a portfolio should start to be more balanced between long/short/cash.
