Elliott Wave Stock Market Update - January 20




















The market closed right below the Trend Avg again and it has a potential to gap up or rally tomorrow in a bullish W3 that will bring the TA back to positive if the move is strong enough. It seems like traders are starting to price in QE in Europe, so we'll find out in a couple of days. Obviously, if the ECB disappoints (I don't see why they wouldn't implement QE under the circumstances) then the markets will find the excuse to re-visit the double bottom. But other than that, I don't really see much of an excuse for a deeper sell off at the moment. Some people were focused on China's 7% "crash" on Monday, but it seems like they did not notice the 70% rally since the low last year without much of a correction. I remain fully invested in China and I actually hope the SSEC will come down to 2600-2800 so I can exchange my H share holdings for A shares. I am betting the SSEC will eventually go into a bubble by trading close to multiples seen in 2007 (PE 45 vs PE 12 today). Most people have not yet fully grasped the size of the Chinese economy and the potential for its stock market to become the biggest in the world. In my opinion, it's just a matter of when and not if given current trends.
