Since the year 1930 the SP-500 has been positive the next year in 25 of 25 cases (100%) with an average again of 16% (5095 => 5910 Target).

Wave Count(s):
- The primary (white/green) count is that minor 1 of major [3]-P3-C3 wave topped at 5265. The minor 2 is underway and has reached 4954 thus far and should complete at or above the 38% Fib at 4824, which is also a back-test of the year 2022 high at 4819.
House Keeping: I will be traveling (driving) back to Chicago from Florida on Monday and Tuesday. The next blog update will be made on Wednesday, April 24th.
Have a great weekend!
