Financial Markets Out Of Sync Part I

click here for  Financial Markets Out Of Sync Part II In my last post, I reintroduced my model . How else can I prove that my work carries benefits? Soon, I will elaborate on the model attribution, its strategy, and the reasoning behind the tactical changes over time.   Today, it's all about WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW with the markets. Last week, I said, global equities are getting out of sync. Now we can show how disjointed the markets have become. The information may help the experienced investor, though everyone wants direction and targets for future market moves. I will do so in this report, valid for the coming weeks, covering equities, commodities and currencies, each asset class in a separate blog post. It's an extra chance to adjust your positions accordingly, if you think my mumblings make sense.  Part 1 EQUITIES - USA and Canada equities I will show charts of Northern American, European, and Asian indices. You will note the divergence, and the...

In continuing our short-term assessment of financial markets, today's report covers European ind ices.  If you want to check back on US and Canadian indices in Part I, click here . Last Sunday, I concluded that a new leg down in equities has started. It should reach a first significant low point around April 18, +/- 3 days. The sell-off could be strongest in large and mega cap stocks. Can this be confirmed by the cycle research in European indices? Part II - European Equities I indicated earlier that European equities have been correcting since last April.   1. EuroStoxx 50 EUROSTOXX50, a 1-year view: a 1 year correction that has more downside to come. DATA SOURCE: chartnexus In this chart I want show you how the price moves formed, where we are at now, and the outlook for the next few weeks. The peak in April 2015 is very prominent. Visually, it is also the starting point of the downturn. Focussing on the left half of the chart, please observe how this grad...
