Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - July 10th

 

The market has continued its rally to higher highs and it doesn't seem like it wants to stop. We now have a new ATH at 4371 which are NASDAQ levels seen not all that long ago! I have stopped trying to figure out the long term count because there is no reasonable count anymore. So I am just going with the trend and trading it.

Hope everyone is enjoying the summer and staying healthy! I am hoping to go on a vacation soon but I still have some reservations despite being fully vaccinated. Just hope the Delta variant doesn't get out of control and we get more lockdowns again in the fall. Looking at the numbers, under-vaccinated regions will be suffering when it starts to cool down. Maybe the market will use this as an excuse to sell-off? I can't imagine it rallying until the end of the year but who knows at this point.

Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - June 5th

 

This market has more lives than a bunch of cats put together! lol. This thing just refuses to go down. The TA was reversed last week and the trend remains bullish despite waning bullish momentum. Based on seasonality and the fact the market has been rallying for over a year one would assume there should be a decent pullback during the summer. But as I have learned through experience and writing this blog for some many years, it's best not to bet on it! I sold my positions couple of weeks ago for a nice profit and all cash in my trading positions. I know sooner or later there will be a big pullback but this could take time.

In the meantime, I am ready to enjoy my summer and do things I didn't get a chance to do in the last year or so. Hope everyone is staying healthy and making plans for a great summer as well! Sorry, I haven't been writing as often but I am just busy with business and life. But the good thing is everything is well and I have a lot to be grateful for.

Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - May 15th

 

The market finally seems to have found a top but we need to see the TA stay bearish for downside to continue. I would say the key thing to watch is for the counter-rally to exhaust before 4238 is reached. A bullish TA signal or a new ATH would invalidate the current bearish set up. I ended up selling everything I bought last month on Friday for a nice profit and I hope the bearish pattern follows through and we see substantial downside so I can buy back :) Maybe this year, we will get the usual "Sell in May and Go Away!".

Also, it is now officially 2 weeks after my second Pfizer dose so I feel a lot safer and grateful that I made it ok through the last 14 months. I hope everyone is also doing ok and immunized as well. Hopefully, this will be the one and only pandemic we will see in our lifetimes.

Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - May 01st

 

The market managed to make another marginally higher ATH after our last update at 4218 before losing some ground and closing the week flat. Prices saw little volatility during the week and we could be seeing a sideways correction that is consolidating gains before another leg higher. The bias remains bullish and new all-time highs are to be expected as long as the short-term trend remains bullish. With that said, there is now a bearish cross on the daily MACD and we are getting closer to a significant top.

Also, I finally got my second shot of the Pfizer vaccine and I am relieved! hopefully, life will be closer to normal in the next month or two. Just hope there isn't some variant that will screw things up.

Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - April 24th

The market had a volatile week but still managed to make a marginally higher ATH on Friday. It does appear that the rally is on its last legs but until the Trend Average turns bearish, new highs continue to be likely. In fact, if resistance breaks we could see a very strong rally into May. I ended up buying in as planned last week (40% of cash) but will pull out once the trend turns bearish.

Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - April 10th

The market closed the week at a new all-time high and there is no sign of slowing down. If anything, I think we might see a period of extreme bullishness given the vaccine progress (I got mine yesterday) and talk about national infrastructure projects. And if a world-wide pandemic, deep recession and a unhinged President didn't do much to cause an extended bear market, I doubt anything at this point will. Maybe in a few months we will see a big correction but it seems we are headed for a period of extremes. I really didn't want to add to positions but I am going to use dips and TA signals to make the most out of this market by putting into work some of the cash. I have a good amount just sitting there doing nothing so I might as well. I tried buying real estate too but it is ridiculous now to be a buyer so I am not going to even bother at this point.

Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - March 27th

 

Sorry for the long term absence. It was a lot easier for me to be diligent about writing when I had time to sit at Starbucks as this was part of the routine. But since the corona virus hit, my schedule has completely changed and so have my habits. Hopefully, things will be getting back to normal in the next two or three months and I will be back enjoying my routine like old times.

Anyway, this is a market fueled by mania(and low interest rates) at the moment. I originally thought we would revisit last year's low but it seems this will go on for as long as stimulus and interest rates supports it. I have to say that despite the fact that I do believe waves evolve in patterns, these multi-year patterns are simply impossible to predict and fundamental analysis in combination with trend-trading is far more effective. So yes, the market will top eventually, when I have no idea. All I can say is that the trends supports higher highs, especially when the TA is bullish.

I continue to hoard cash and I am looking for investments that make sense. But until I see an opportunity, I am happy just waiting. I've tried buying real estate too recently but it's the same problem too. Low interest rates has created mania/desperation. I just wonder how and when will this end as it's been now 12 years of the same.
