Executive Summary

Last week I expected the SPX to rebound early and then drop to 1150 by Friday with a possible Panic to 1100 and we did get a very brief Panic in all assets. This week I expect the SPX to rebound to the 1150 area into mid-week and decline towards 1100 by Friday. Plan B has the SPX breaking above 1050 and reaching 1070 by Friday.

The SPX is bearish below 1140 on Monday
The SPX is behaving in a typical fashion after crashes of varying sizes like the famous 1929, 1987 crash but also the smaller January 08 and the recent October 08 crash. In almost all cases a test of the lows and even marginal new lows were made shortly after the crash and that means a retest of the lows lies ahead after a very choppy rebound and since this crash was very short in time, the retest is likely to come by next week. The similar mini crash of April 4, 2000 when the SPX dropped 100 pts only to recover 80 pts, suggests a two day rebound to at least 1150 before an even larger drop of 200 points in 4 days that would take us to 950 by next week but it does not have to play out with the same magnitude. The top Put/Call and white Trin lines are oversold enough to suggest a rebound, and the market saw a lot of buying on Friday as shown by the rising Ticks in the top window and strong StochRSI in the bottom window but the Price still came down significantly showing supply is still large. The short term cycles are suggesting a mixed day on Monday that should weaken into the close, but the PPO is close to making a higher high and turning positive and that would signal a move higher for a while.

Late Monday (high?), late Tuesday (low?), early Thursday (high?)
The best fit for the last month is close to a 3.5 day cycle that is suggesting a rebound into late Monday, which looks like it has started already from the bottom in the low Ticks. Then a quick drop into late Tuesday and a weak rebound into the New Moon Wednesday night since the 7 day cycle peaks on Wednesday. it could come anytime and we have an expected 12 day cycle low on Wednesday/Thursday. The top Put/Call lines have completed 5 waves up into a double top that could fuel a rebound for a few days until they come down, and the top white Trin line is making lower lows implying selling is on the decline for now and is something to watch near its trend line. The bottom blue PPO line is also hitting its yellow trend line after completing 5 waves down from the April 29 high, and implies we are in day 1 of correcting a 5 day decline with one or two days left before we resume the decline.

Trend is bearish but getting oversold for week ending May 14th
s The SPX did drop and Panic into the possible big low I saw possible last Thursday/Friday for the 14 week cycle of spike highs in the
VIX here and lows of Friday October 30th, Friday February 5th and Friday May 7th which saw the highest VIX level of the week. The VIX will likely come down this week from the 14 week cycle high, and that probably means we will rebound early this week for the 3.5 week cycle high of Tuesday May 11th and the New Moon of Thursday the 13th which matches the behavior seen after the same 100 point spike of April 4, 2000 which points to a high Wednesday the 12th. The high Put/Call lines in the top window are in a fifth wave and getting oversold, while the white Trin line already completed 5 waves up and is already stalling in very overbought suggesting a rebound soon. The Tick lines in the lower window are also getting very oversold but in a Wave 3 from the top suggesting further lows after a probable oversold rebound as the other indicators suggest. The most likely bearish count is that we have completed 5 Waves from the March 09 low on April 26 which is a PI cycle of 3,142 days from the opening day after 9/11, and will now start a decline back to new lows for the 4 and 8.6 year cycle lows of Fall 2010 and Spring 2011. We are probably in Wave 3 or Wave 4 of the first Wave down of three that should take us to new lows by 2011, and that means one more low before we have a fairly large counter trend rally into June. The alternative bullish count is that the rally from the March 09 low is not over and another rally will start from support above 1000 and probably take us to marginal new highs by the end of 2010.

Outlook is bearish into May
The SPX and Nasdaq failed to hold the 1200 and 2500 levels and the Dow and Nasdaq 100 barely held on to their 2000 and 11,000 levels and continue to act a lot like the January and October tops suggesting a move towards the 1100 level in May. The top blue Tick line is bearish and looks to be in a Wave 3 down which implies further lows for Wave 5 and a likely target is between the bottom of the expanding wedge which nailed the panic low and the February low near 1040-70. Both the lower blue 15 day Put/Call and red 5 day Trin lines are still climbing in a bearish trend and converging towards a high before the Expiration of May 21st. The cycles have been lengthening since August into a 2 x 30 day, 2 x 50 day and possibly the first 140 day cycle high on April 15-20, but other series point to possible lows on May 11th and May 19th which is the 2 year anniversary of the May 19-08 high, and all of them suggest weakness going into May.

Cycle Summary
The 2.5-5-10 year cycle suggests an April 10-13 cycle high in optimism and has been regular from July 1982. -  A Deep 4/8 year cycle low is expected from the the deep Fall lows of 1982, 90, 98, 2002 and 2010. -  An 8.6 year PI cycle low is due from the crash of the CRB into 1986, Nikkei 94, USA-Euro 2002 and Many in 2011? -  A Deep 10/20 year cycle low is usual in years like Jul 1932, Apr 42, Jun 62, Aug 82, Jul 2002, and 2012 or 2022? -  This Bear Market is expected to make new lows by Fall 2010 for the 2, 4 and 8 year cycle lows and/or by Summer 2011 for the PI 8.6 year cycle low.

We are probably seeing the high of the year for the 30 month cycle in April
All indicators have turned down for the 30 month cycle high of April 2010 and are about 2/3 of the way to their next support lines, suggesting the Panic of May 6th was part of a Wave 3, and we should see further lows for a Wave 5 before this first move down is over. Many of the support lines are only half way to the very oversold conditions we can see in a bear market and since we should resume the bear soon, those first support lines may not hold for long. The red McClellan Summation line on the top window is coming down fast and should break the line and make a lower low than it did in early February, which itself was lower than the one made in early November, and since there was about 14 weeks between the November low and the February low, we could see a low by mid May for that cycle. The 30 month cycle which has marked many important double tops and bottoms in the last decade is suggesting a January and April double top like we saw 4 x 30 month cycles ago in 2000, but also 30 months ago in July and October 07, which was a mirror image of the July and October lows of 2002 exactly 2 x 30 months before. From this high, we should decline into a double bottom in April and July 2011 and those dates fall around the PI cycle low date of mid June 2011 when anchored with the crash of 1987, or mid July 2011 when anchored with the crash of 1929. We are at the same price levels as in early 2004, but with very different fundamentals and those who expect the same outcome in 2010 as we saw in 2004 should be in for a surprise. The fundamentals erased a 5 year Bull market in a single year in 2008, and he next credit crisis can erase this one year rally in very little time.

Moon, Cycles and More


Cardinal Climax Preview

New Moons are statistical highs but when they invert into a low can cause a panic under the right conditions, and the low often occurs 3 days before which would be this weekend and should give us the rebound into Wednesday May 12th that the Spring 2000 pattern in the middle right chart suggests.
See a
larger Moon chart here

Wall-Street and the media would like you to believe that last week was caused by a glitch and things will return to normal but in fact what happened this week is not uncommon at major tops and actually happened already at the top in 2000 with Saturn and Uranus at 90 degrees just like they are at 180 degrees now and part of that rare Cardinal Climax formation. There was no glitch on Tuesday April 4, 2000 to explain a 100 point drop and an 80 point recovery, and the glitches on Thursday may have been the catalyst, but were not responsible for the 100 point drop but only 70 point recovery, this kind of price action is only a natural reaction of an overbought market and a bubble mentality near major tops.

What is likely to happen is a reaction similar to what we saw after the April 4, 2000 intraday dip, and that is a mild recovery for a few days and a then a return to where the market was going in the first place and that is likely closer to 1050 than 1150 as shown on the top right. Any close above the 1170 highs of spike Thursday the 6th would invalidate this pattern and lead to new highs in June.

The Saturn - Uranus part of the Cardinal Climax which was exact on April 26th, was last exact on November 4, 2008 which marked the high of the Obama rally and the beginning of a 4 month decline into the famous March 6th low, and 4 months from the April high falls in August and right in the Cardinal Climax window and could turn out to be a major low with the possible road map seen on the lower right chart.

The pattern match with Spring 2000 is in short term conflict with the late 2008 pattern since the former has Wednesday May 12th as a high and May 18th as the low, while the latter has May 13th as the low but we are closer to the highs like in 2000 and not close to the lows like in late 2008, and I expect the Spring 2000 pattern to be more accurate in the short term giving us an early week high before the decline, and the late 2008 to early 2009 pattern more of a road map into a July 4th Summer high and a late August low.

We closed just above 1110 which was the lowest level of support before the Panic of 2008 started and we must hold this 1100 area this week or risk another waterfall decline to the 1050 area. The path going up is full of resistance but the January high of 1150 will be a tough right shoulder to crack, and the 1170-80 area was key support and resistance since 1998 and should turn the market down, or we will test the highs again.

Trend is bearish but getting oversold for week ending May 14th

The SPX did drop and Panic into the possible big low I saw possible last Thursday/Friday for the 14 week cycle of spike highs in the VIX here and lows of Friday October 30th, Friday February 5th and Friday May 7th which saw the highest VIX level of the week. The VIX will likely come down this week from the 14 week cycle high, and that probably means we will rebound early this week for the 3.5 week cycle high of Tuesday May 11th and the New Moon of Thursday the 13th which matches the behavior seen after the same 100 point spike of April 4, 2000 which points to a high Wednesday the 12th. The high Put/Call lines in the top window are in a fifth wave and getting oversold, while the white Trin line already completed 5 waves up and is already stalling in very overbought suggesting a rebound soon. The Tick lines in the lower window are also getting very oversold but in a Wave 3 from the top suggesting further lows after a probable oversold rebound as the other indicators suggest. The most likely bearish count is that we have completed 5 Waves from the March 09 low on April 26 which is a PI cycle of 3,142 days from the opening day after 9/11, and will now start a decline back to new lows for the 4 and 8.6 year cycle lows of Fall 2010 and Spring 2011. We are probably in Wave 3 or Wave 4 of the first Wave down of three that should take us to new lows by 2011, and that means one more low before we have a fairly large counter trend rally into June. The alternative bullish count is that the rally from the March 09 low is not over and another rally will start from support above 1000 and probably take us to marginal new highs by the end of 2010.

We are probably seeing the high of the year for the 30 month cycle in April

All indicators have turned down for the 30 month cycle high of April 2010 and are about 2/3 of the way to their next support lines, suggesting the Panic of May 6th was part of a Wave 3, and we should see further lows for a Wave 5 before this first move down is over. Many of the support lines are only half way to the very oversold conditions we can see in a bear market and since we should resume the bear soon, those first support lines may not hold for long. The red McClellan Summation line on the top window is coming down fast and should break the line and make a lower low than it did in early February, which itself was lower than the one made in early November, and since there was about 14 weeks between the November low and the February low, we could see a low by mid May for that cycle. The 30 month cycle which has marked many important double tops and bottoms in the last decade is suggesting a January and April double top like we saw 4 x 30 month cycles ago in 2000, but also 30 months ago in July and October 07, which was a mirror image of the July and October lows of 2002 exactly 2 x 30 months before. From this high, we should decline into a double bottom in April and July 2011 and those dates fall around the PI cycle low date of mid June 2011 when anchored with the crash of 1987, or mid July 2011 when anchored with the crash of 1929. We are at the same price levels as in early 2004, but with very different fundamentals and those who expect the same outcome in 2010 as we saw in 2004 should be in for a surprise. The fundamentals erased a 5 year Bull market in a single year in 2008, and he next credit crisis can erase this one year rally in very little time.

Oil is between the 75-85 levels which have marked the 100, 200, 400, and 800% gains from the 1999 low, and a logical place to turn for the 30 year cycle high. The most probable count is that the almost 10 year rally from early 1999 to late 2008 is over and Oil will correct for a minimum of 25 to 50% in time, or 2.5 to 5 years into 2011 to 2014, but the 36 level will probably hold.

The US Dollar turned up from support near 74 and is acting a lot like in December 1991 where it rallied for a few months before turning down to make new lows and we should see the dollar rally towards 83 into May for the 4.25 year cycle high. The current period in the 17.2 year cycle is a lot like the early 1990's and we could test and even breach the 70 area in 2010 if we continue to follow the pattern.
