Think the U.S. economy has gone to the dogs? You may be more right than you thought. A Wednesday, August 27 L.A. Times article explains why consumer confidence is sinking to a 40-year low, via a science experiment involving -- well -- two obedient canines. Here’s the gist:

A lot can happen in a week, especially in the commodities markets.
That's why Senior Commodities Analyst Jeffrey Kennedy writes the Daily Futures Junctures Weekly Wrap-up each Friday. Jeffrey uses these updates to review and post forecast charts for every major commodity market. He also records a video update which allows him to talk about each one of his charts in depth.
By way of example, here's an excerpt of last Friday's update, with Jeffrey discussing what the week's action in Soybeans means for the future:

The energy in-crowd spends more time watching changes in climate patterns than Al Gore. Their main goal: Spot “bullish” storm activity in oil producing regions that could damage supply and therefore, spark a rise in prices. Problem is, hurricane activity means hooey to oil's overall trend...

It’s no surprise homeowners felt invincible; they'd been told to feel that way every day. The mainstream media – the group who believes they're supposed to question authority for the good of John Q. Public – got caught with their pants down. Government agencies appeared equally inept – or at least unwilling to confront the problem. But there were a select few who not only knew, but were ready and waiting.

Whenever I talk about how to use the Elliott Wave Principle in forex trading, I always spend the majority of the time talking about the price patterns R.N. Elliott provided us with over seventy years ago. Those patterns are the heart and soul of the Wave Principle. But more and more I'm asked prematurely about Fibonacci relationships. Here are some thoughts on that... (EWI's Currency Specialty Service FreeWeek continues through noon on August 27. Keep reading for details.)

Mr. Hull's Giant
“There's a sucker born every minute."
by
Bill Fox, Sr. Bonds Analyst
8/22/2008 6:45:00 PM
In the summer of 1868, Mr. George Hull of Binghamton, New York, decided to pull off a hoax. He had a gypsum block carved into the shape of a giant dead man, buried at a farm near Cardiff, New York -- and then later, he had it dug up. Thousands of people flocked to pay and see "Mr. Hull’s giant." And here we are, 140 years later...

If you have watched a few episodes of the hit TV series House, you know there is a specific formula for each episode. The gifted but fiercely independent doctor must find the answer to a medical mystery before the show's end — a total of 43 minutes. However, until that time, Dr. House and his team make any number of right and wrong moves, yet each one serves to reach the final, correct diagnosis.
An Elliott Wave technician's job works much the same way: not every Wave Count unfolds as expected. Yet even if you get off track, a mistaken forecast can still reveal the bigger story, as new facts flow in from the market.

Conquer the Crash Delivered Today's News in 2002
The forecasts in Bob Prechter’s best-selling book, Conquer the Crash, are coming true like falling dominoes.
by
Alan Hall
8/19/2008 5:30:00 PM
The truly remarkable part of the story is how early he saw them. Bob described the ways that many dominoes would fall before some of them were even set up. His earlier book, At the Crest of the Tidal Wave was published in 1995, while Conquer the Crash was in 2002. This was years before the gathering storm became obvious to “Dr. Doom,” (the New York Times’ name for economist Nouriel Roubini) who described parts of the bursting bubble in 2006.

Now that oil has taken a 25% dive off that peak (in less than a month!), people are asking – why is the price falling, and so fast? And that's a very good question. Did the global demand for oil suddenly take a u-turn? Is there peace in the Middle East? Have speculators shifted their attention to other markets? Watch this free video for an Elliott wave perspective.

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.
