Coincidence ?

The Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker left office right at the 1987 stock market top.
Alan Greenspan  left office about one year before the 2007 stock market top.
Ben Bernanke leaves office in January 2014.
Is another stock market top imminent ???

Recap of the May 2011 Forecast and Where are We Now

Our May 13th Forecast Turned Out to Be Very Accurate

An S&P500 forecast was made on Friday May 13,2011 for a May top and a sell off into August 2011...

Below is a summary of what happened...

Top May 2011 – SPX high 1370.58

Bottom August 2011 – the SPX closing low for August was 1119.46

This was a drop of 251.12 S&P500 points or 18.3% 

Below is a copy of the Forecast made or scroll back to Friday May 13,2011 for the original Forecast...

Astro Forecast for the S&P500

The following information is based on limited data and limited back testing...

There are three sets of events below...

Each set of forecasted monthly Tops and monthly Bottoms is based on the same astro events...

The index used was the S&P500...

For the highs we noted the SPX high for that month and for the lows we noted the SPX low for that month...

Top August 1987 – SPX high 337.89

Bottom December 1987 – SPX low 221.24

Bottom November 1990 – SPX low 301.61

Top July 1999 – SPX high 1420.33

Bottom October 1999 – SPX low 1233.66

Bottom September 2002 – SPX low 800.20

Top May 2011 – SPX high 1370.58

Bottom August 2011 – SPX low ?     (1119.46 was the August closing low)

Bottom July 2014 – SPX low ?

Note that in each set above the time between the top and the first bottom is 3-4 months and the time between the top and the second bottom is approximately 3 years. 

 

SO WHERE ARE WE NOW ?

If history is going to repeat itself, we maybe looking at a SPX reading of less than 1370.58 in the middle to the second half of 2014...

That would be about a 24% drop from the 1800.00 level...

GLD weekly chart with Oscillator

This weekly GLD chart (top) is displayed with an Oscillator (bottom)
As GLD descended from its top the oscillator produced lower tops indicating that GLD was probably not going to turn around and go up with any conviction
Once the down trend in the oscillator was broken to the upside GLD had a chance to try and change its trend from down to up
With the oscillator now in an oversold area it is possible that GLD may make another attempt to move to the upside
Any such move should be confirmed using additional trading tools

Today's sell off in equities, bonds & gold would indicate we are in or will be in a deflation period...
But we need to see more than one day of this type of action to firmly come to this conclusion...
So where did the money flow to today ?  The US Dollar ?

GLD weekly chart

 GLD weekly chart from July 2011 with an overbought oversold oscillator below...
If the declining tops on the oscillator gets broken to the upside, that action may indicate that we may have a decent rally on GLD...
Until then GLD should be in some kind of a base building pattern...

Astro chart vs the S&P 500

The above shows the S&P 500, in the top chart, compared to an astrology chart just below.
The peaks in the astro chart are, April 2010, July 2011 and March 2012.
We are currently in the window of another peak in the astro chart and a potential top in the S&P 500.
These peaks do not have any correlation to a short term, intermediate or major tops, just that some kind of top is probable.
The use of additional indicators must be used to help time and confirm this action at all times.
