Re: At 7,500 we find out if there is a bottom 10/08/08
On a support and resistance basis, if this decline continues, INDU should find some friendship around the 8950 level. If that support is not enough to stem the ebb tide, then 7345 -- the low of the bear capitulating in 2002 (based upon a 2.5%, 2 block P&F chart) -- would be the next place to look for a bottom. And should that fail, another P&F target is 6870. A simple bar chart shows that a ...

Re: Are you a buyer? 10/07/08
is goog a buy? 1%, 1box p&f chart gives downside objective of 351.63. (vs current price of 354.46.) weekly bar chart shows goog has declined to the strong support area churned out during most of 2006. rsi, stochastics, and cci vs price are showing positive divergences. however, it would be nice to see a more climactic volume level before taking a long position, although volume is pr...

Re: Where to put your money 10/06/08
Not in stocks until there is evidence of a bottom in place. Bonds will likely prosper as long as there is a global flight to safety into the US. (All other major countries have been infected by the US financial disease and are worse off.) Cash -- ie, $USD -- same as above. Commodities in a tanking economy will likely tank, also. The single home & commercial property real estate mark...

Re: Is it time to lighten or load up on oil? 08/11/08
PART 2) Quatinus? A 2.5%, 2-box P&F chart of the United States Oil Fund (USO) indicated a horizontal base of 18 boxes formed from 06Oct to 07Sep and a horizontal price target of 105.06 [43.19 x (1.025)^(18 x 2) = 105.06], an objective achieved in 08May. A subsequent vertical count taken from a formation stretching from 08Mar through 08Apr gave a higher price target of 118.87, which proved to b...

Re: Is it time to lighten or load up on oil? 08/11/08
PART 1) A good case can be made that the apparent rise of oil and other commodities was due less to a supply-demand imbalance than a blood-sacrifice of the dollar by the Treasury-Fed collusion to keep the troubled, Anglo-American banking establishment on life support. The fact that the US consistently added to its strategic petroleum reserves at increasingly higher prices during 2008 and US EXP...

Re: MARKET CRASH on AUGUST 22nd 07/30/08
Personally, I believe that your Black friday will be a non-starter in the middle of a rising trend for the SPX. This uptrend will likely last until the week of 9/22-9/26/08 with the SPX selling at somewhere around 1400. If you like full moon stuff, Mercury turns retrogade from 9/24-10/16/08, which often presents a rough patch for US securities markets. Also, 9/08/08 could set up an interesting ...

Re: punished Financials 07/30/08
The nature of your question implies that you probably should not be bottom picking. In order to do this correctly, you must have a method which incorporates timing, risk control, and volatility management. The method is important because relying upon rationality in a largely irrational environment can be deleterious to one's bank account. You might want to consider a simple, robust system based...

Re: How to reform US health care? 07/29/08
PART 2 of 2. Third, promote effective wellness and healthy lifestyle programs. If we are to live in an increasingly socialized world, I do not choose to subsidize those folks standing in line at the “Fried Chicken Hut,” or the “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Fish (But I Can Believe That It’s Cholesterol) Shack.” Under socialism, your bad behavior is a direct cost to society, overall, an...

Re: How to reform US health care? 07/29/08
PART 1 of 2. A major reform of any system in the US will first require reform of the legal system. Attorneys have gained control over everything that matters in this country and any pretense at beneficial change or meaningful reform is merely fodder for a lawsuit or class action movement. Any change that will cap malpractice suits or reduce normal practice of medicine lawsuits will be resisted,...

Re: Regional Banks which ones will fail???? 07/22/08
Too much advance warning of the coming collapse. Too many people are hugging the portside rail. Too many folks are sure that the final end is nigh. Gold can only go up. The dollar can only go down. All of these warnings are becoming so increasingly shrill - with each repetition - that they are beginning to sound like the squeals of the lemmings plunging over the precipice to their impending doo...
