Conventional economic wisdom lurks in the shadow of a system that uses news events to explain the direction of financial markets. Or, at best, it presumes ahead of time how prices will react to upcoming data -- and is inevitably thwarted by a fickle market that blatantly "ignores" negative stats to move higher, or "shrugs off" positive ones to turn down.

Unemployment is high. Earnings are horrible. Deficits are out of control. House prices are still under pressure. And auto sales are flat. Yet the stock market is up about 40% from its March lows.
Let’s say that you’re convinced the market is going to collapse, -- so you sell. And you get stopped out. Let’s say you sell again. And get stopped out. Sell again. Stopped out. So you wait for the market to turn down and you sell into the decline. The market bounces and you get stopped out yet again. Then the market goes back down in earnest – but without you. Does this sound familiar? If so, it doesn’t have to be that way.

It wasn’t that long ago that people bought stuff they didn’t need with money they didn’t have. Easy credit and houses-as-ATM’s fueled consumerism to the boiling point. In hindsight, observers have described this behavior as: “aspirational shopping”, or buying beyond your economic circumstances. What does this have to do with the stock market? Everything.

t's Federal Open Market Committee time again. And, even before the June 24 meeting adjourned, word-parsers were dissecting the "minutes" like a high school biology student with a frog. In short: While everyone with a pulse guesses at the meaning of Bernanke-speak, ALL of them hope his words give the stock market something to celebrate.

After climbing its way to the top of a speculative mania, the US economy is stuck like a cat in a tree. Which begs the question: Do the finanical Powers have the necessary equipment to save the economy and bring it back down slowly, and safely?

In the last month, the finanical powers-that-be have pulled the trigger on a "bailout bazooka" AND dropped the ultimate bailout A-bomb. YET -- the big, bad grizzly goes unscathed, taking the financial world by storm like some indestructible Bearzilla, squashing every major monument to wealth in its wake. The latest casualty: the Dow Jones Industrial Average...

The what: On Tuesday, June 10, China’s Shanghai Composite Index suffered a near-meltdown, plunging 8% to its lowest level in over a year. Saying that China’s stocks are falling on “policy tightening” is like saying the Big Bang gave you a headache. Meaning: The effort on the part of China’s government to stem their nation’s speculative tide is way older than the market’s actual downtrend.

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.
