SP500 Possible Temporary Bottom Today

Every so often I recognize what appears to be a very likely turning point in an index. The SP500 may well have made one of those turns today (March 6) at the low of 666.79. This is based in part on my Elliott Wave Count. If the rally does occur I see it as only another pause in a continued downturn.

The interesting thing about this is that my analysis allows me to see "the possibility" of a relatively important market turn as it occurs. Only Elliott allows one to see this sort of thing.

Time will tell if the market has started a sideways or rally pattern. The market always has the option of going deeper still before it makes the next rally. In any event it appears to be due for a somewhat larger rally at this time.

Exchange Traded Bear Fund Update November 20, 2008


I continue to hold my shares in the stock market Bear Funds and see a high probability that they could become more profitable with a further market decline. Here are the current charts for the Canadian TSX 60 Index Bear Fund and the US SP500 Index Bear Fund.
These funds are like holding short positions without the risk of losing more than you paid for them. Also, unlike buying "Puts" they have no time limit working against you.
