The G-20 leaders met in London last week and pledged to infuse 1.1 trillion dollars into the economies of struggling countries to combat the "global financial crisis." With the U.S. and other major industrial powers in deep bear markets, one might wonder "Are there any bullish stock markets left around the globe?" 

The simple answer is, YES: the April Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast (APFF) explains the how and why.


Get the Case for Bull Markets in Asian Stocks. Try The Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast, risk-free.
There's a strong historical precedent for Asian markets to climb when the U.S. falls. Consider the 1966-1982 bear market in the U.S., which saw the DJIA drop 14%. During that same period, Japan's Nikkei 225 gained 389% and India's stock market gained 233% while several smaller markets made even larger gains. This chart tells the tale:

 

How can this be? The APFF reminds us that "The only factors you need to consider when forecasting the direction of an index are its own long-term and short-term wave patterns." In other words, while the U.S. is currently riding a long-term bearish wave, several Asian markets are beginning powerful bullish waves.

Remember that stock market indexes reflect the valuation of a society's productive enterprise, its social mood. The U.S. and other nations are mired in deep bear markets while others soar because "individual indexes follow their own wave paths because each society generates its own mood internally."

The bearish social mood and "global financial crisis" may slow down the U.S. and other world markets, yet there's always a phoenix rising somewhere; and in fact, the April Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast outlines the case for four new bull markets in Asia. These markets have "completed only three waves down from their respective highs, which makes them strong candidates to rally back to at least near their all-time highs – if not beyond."
 
Consider the evidence for yourself in the just-published, April 3 Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast. You'll also receive the March 23 APFF Interim report that describes the urgent investment opportunities in Indian stocks. For instant – and 100% risk-free – access, click here.

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
