I am currently preparing a deep analysis, but it is taking some time, and the market is plummeting. So many indicators and consequences to articulate. I will release it tonight or tomorrow morning. Suffice to say, it does not look good. Even MOSES is starting to be bearish. The market is like the famous quote from Shrek "I am a Donkey on the edge". If you want...

Some jokes are funny, and some memes are funny. Some are not. Loose monetary policy has left the economy awash with cheap credit, reminiscent of the roaring 1920s. Cheap cash has fueled wild speculation culminating in cry<ptocurrency and NFT bubbles and scams. Dogecoin is for me the perfect example of irrational crowd behavior. You might be thinking, wow...

For those of us old enough to remember the glorious movie, The Godfather III, there is a thrilling scene where Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) explains... “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.” You are Don Corleone in this market. You are positive; you are by default a bull; you want the market to go up. You have fear of missing out (FOMO) if the...

I have been bearish since Feb 7, 2022, with a long-term price target of the pre-Corona high, as evidenced in the attached chart "Sound of bubbles bursting" Feb 18 . I have been using 3 month dated Near the Money Puts on the QQQ. But what I wanted to share was the use of Gann and the excellent Candlestick recognition in TradingView. I was looking at tripling...

My good friend Moses emerged from the cloud and declared “I have beaten the Nasdaq 100 by 1,100% over the last 24 years.” I double and triple-checked his numbers, and goodness me he was right. “How did you achieve that Moses!” I exclaimed. “It was achieved using the application of mathematics and technical analysis” Moses retorted. “But what did you do...

John Maynard Keynes, described in his “General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money," animal spirits as the human emotions that affect consumer confidence.
