Up 20.0% on avg and higher 4 out of 4. Avg yr up 9.5% and higher 72.0% of time. https://x.com/RyanDetrick/status/187595896308022519
  2. January Affect (Jan 31st, 2025): Just look how important a positive January is for the SP500 yearly gains. Positive January (Above 5881): SP500 on average gains +16.9% for the year = 6875 alt (blue) P3 top near EOY. Alt(blue) count looking great here on January 31st with the SP500 close of 6040, well above 5881. https://x.com/RyanDetrick/status/1885324596485791857
  3. NYSE A-D Line Cumulative ($NYAD): The broad market $NYAD has not yet made a confirming new all-time high. SharpCharts | StockCharts.com
  4. The 4-year Presidential Cycle: Seasonality has been spot-on since the mid-term lows in late 2022
    The first quarter (Q1-2025) of the first year of a new President is typically a sideways move. Then in Q2, Q3, and Q4 of year 1, the SP500 tends to head higher.

Wave Count(s):

  1. The primary (white/green) wave count is that major [4]-P3-C3 of SCV has played out as a large, 3-month long flat wave that has hit 5528. Major [4] complete at 5528 or could test the double top target of 5446. Note: Breaking above 5666 would help to confirm the major [4] low.
  2. The alternate (red) wave count is that P3-C3 of SCV completed at 6147. The P4 wave is underway that I’m expecting to take the form of a large contracting triangle. This -10.0% drop from 6147 to 5528 thus far is major [A]-P4 that could be complete near the 23% Fib retrace of P3 at 5535 or major [A]-P4 could test the double top target at 5446. Note: The major [A]-P4 wave will likely be the Orthodox low of the P4 triangle wave.
