Doesn’t your prior blue count remain in play until 3919?
pugsma said
There were indications, like IWM relative strength to SP500, that make this break above 3919 a foregone outcome.
Embrace the new IT bull market and likely the continued LT bull market (ie P3-C3 up up up…)

By my primary (white/green) wave count, we are in a minute (3) of minor 3 wave here. My white labels and circles are VERY conservative upside targets.
The amount of money that’s in cash or short right is LARGE and the bearish sentiment is beyond extreme. Rocket fuel..

With the intraday break above late June highs in multiple indexes and possible close above their 50 SMAs short covering could snowball. A strong close today would be helpful.

SPX, IWM, QQQ, INDU, TRAN all closed above 50 SMA
IWM, QQQ, TRAN all had intraday & closing highs > late June
SPX, INDU both had closing highs > late June

I’ve been following Cobra almost as long as I’ve been blogging my TA (Since year 2009).
I kind of feel bad for Cobra. He does great at pulling up historical stats on the market that can help be a guide. However, he doesn’t use any 2nd level thinking in analyzing those historical stats. Cobra has just kept saying there is 88% chance of a lower low that 3637, even after weeks have gone by and the data has clearly changed and needs re-evaluated. Like I did last week and again early on Monday of this week.

So early last week I started to discuss the internal details of the Cobra 88% probability (49 of 56 cases since 1994) of lower lower than June 16th at 3637.
We are now starting the 5th week since this historical stat without a lower low than 3637.
I told you most of the 49 cases with a lower low occurred in the first or second week. Then the rest of the cases (except 1) had the lower low within 4 weeks.
Thus the odds have clearly flipped into the bulls favor. We only have 1 case of a lower low after 4 weeks that occurs at 7 weeks and we have 6 cases that the low was in.
Thus a lower low than 3637 probability 1/7 = 15% (Alternate blue count)
Chances of low at 3637 is the low is 6/7 = 85% probability (primary white/green count)

Steve … any detailed count for this minute 3 wave up? Trying to gauge the kind of possible pullback. Thanks.
pugsma said
It’s in i-(3) of minor 3 and might not have peaked this wave i-(3) yet. 3950 pivot is the near-term hurdle to clear for this wave.
pugsma said
And always remember in a bull wave (3) of 3, the surprises are to the upside and typically gap up and go.

The SP500 just hit 3957 and broke above the range of 3946 to 3722, that’s been in place for a month so be the 3647 bottom.
The minimum target over the next month is 3946 – (3946-3723) = 4170.
Both the primary (white/green) and alt(red) or heading to that target area.
pugsma said
The maximum dip I see on the path to 4170+ is a pull-back to back-test the 50-day SMA at 3920 for ii-(3) of minor 3.
However we likely still haven’t seen the top of i-(3) of minor 3 at 3957.

Now at 3970. Good morning bulls! 💰😎

In a little over a week on Thursday, July 28th the first look at 2Q-2022 GDP will be announced.
Leading economist forecast is an average of +2% with a range of +1 to +3%.
However the historically accurate Atlanta Fed RealGDP predictor sits at -1.6%. Meaning combined with the -1.5% GDP of Q1-2022, the US economy is already in a mild recession.
Next week is going to very telling…

pugsma said
On July 28th, Any Q2-2022 GDP above -1.5% is a positive trend from -1.5% of Q1-2022
Any number above 0.0% will mean the US is not in a recession. The stock market is priced at recession levels now. The markets should scream higher on a print above 0.0%.

Steve,
I wonder if the traditional definition of a recession is not the best measure of the health of the economy today.In our local, still cant find enough people to work. Everyone has orders they have placed for goods and services and you are told to wait weeks or even months! Contractors are backed up and building of new homes or updating are waiting to be completed and filled with furnishings that haven’t in some cases even been ordered I am told.
pugsma said
You don’t change the rules in the middle of the game. A recession is at least two consecutive quarters of negative GPD.
Now if you want to discuss what’s happening in the labor market, that’s fair. I’ve had this discussion often with my adult childer.
In my opinion the labor remains very tight because the baby boom generation, and to some extent my generation X, have cashed out and retired. The millennials (my kids generation) have an inherent allergy to work, at least in the traditional sense. The work from home, trade crypt, and generally hustle their way to very source of income. They are not working in restaurants and very low paying service jobs. They never will. Automation is the solution. Self-serve Kiosks fortunately replacing them.

inherent allergy to work! that is hilarious! My 18 is in week 5 of Naval Boot camp. I’ll swing by and see you Sept 16th….graduation. HA Maybe Naval Boot Camp will be the benadryl to relieve those allergies!

Sounds like he’s already a hard worker at 18! Congrats!
