- 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 to slightly down move. Then in Q2, Q3, and Q4 of year 1, the SP500 tends to head higher.

Wave Count(s):
- 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 completed at 5505. The major [5] wave up is underway with major [5]=[1] target at 6620. The minute (1) of minor 1 of major [5] wave up completed at 5703. The minute (2) wave down completed at 5598, just below the 50% Fib of 5604. The minute (3) wave up is underway with a target of (3)=1.62(1) at 5919. The minor 1 of major [5] should target the 6017 pivot area. Note: The primary (white/green) count is valid above 5603.
- The alternate (red) wave count is that P3-C3 of SCV completed at 6147. The P4 wave is underway and I’m expecting it to take the form of a major [A]-[B]-[C], Zig-Zag to hold the 38% Fib retrace at 5138. The major [A]-P4 completed at 5505. The major [B]-P4 wave up is completed at 5787, just below the 50% Fib retrace of 5826. The major [C]-P4 wave down is underway, headed below 5505 towards 5138. Note: The alternate (red) count for is valid below 5787.
