x 0   x 1  Alert Admin	One camp says the bear market could be over and a new bull market has started. But this view does NOT mean we wont see a pullback next. In fact, the bulls in this camp VERY MUCH want to see a pullback. So that they can board this ship.  If last Friday was the day which gave the signal that the bear market has ended and a new bull calf was born, Monday and yesterday were the 1st and 2nd days after the bull calf was born that the bulls were keeping a lookout for a pullback. But they didnt get one. Will we get one tonite ? Courtesy of Fed Meeting Minutes which may reveal that Fed Governors are more hawkish than market had thought ? Or will it be results from Wallmart, Home Depot and Target which will provide the excuse for short term traders to take money off the table after such a good run? I am a bull for now. And I hope to see a pullback.  32700 region will be nice but I doubt she will be so kind to us. The next higher area of support is at 33300 to 33400 region which looks more reachable and even then, we are at the mercy of those who have the most amount of capital to move the market....whether they want to allow her to go there. From 34200 where she is now to 33400 is 800 pts. Hmmmm.......    Maxgrow68      ( Date: 17-Aug-2022 11:07) Posted: Whatever the weather, always be prepared.... yoga123      ( Date: 17-Aug-2022 10:00) Posted: Bro Max, I guess an umbrella or raincoat would help..

Ciao !!! wavehunter      ( Date: 16-Aug-2022 11:18) Posted: Bro Max, By now, any past thinking along the lines of " Every spike is an opportunity to SHORT" has probably died. Becoz anyone who did that - SHORT into every spike.... from since 31300 until now 33900.... by now chow tar leow. Unless you willing to set aside a sum of 100k to fight this battle of attrition and prepared at worse to lose all of it. The only way for a katek who plays this game to win is if the index goes back down to below 32600. Assuming one started SHORTing at 31300 and added consistently all the way to 33900, then the median is at around 32600.  So Futures must fall by 1300 pts for such a katek to get a lifeline.  Can Futures fall by 1300 pts ? If the king kongs of Wall Street want to trigger the stops of those who bought at 32800 to 33900, then yes. It is still possible. Trigger their stops to collect from them. Then push the market back up again. But a drop of 1100 pts from 33700 region is a drawdown of 26.82% after the index closed above the 50% mark between peak and trough. Data does not support such a steep drop. Data says the biggest drawdown was slightly more than 10% only which is around 400 pts from 33700 region which is 33300.  Data is data. We see what happens from here.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	The market looks overextended. I see an unwillingness of people to buy. To induce people to buy, the market must pull back first. No pullback no buy. If this continues, the upward momentum will stall. Then what is likely to happen next is short term traders and swing traders will take profits. And we get a nice pullback. Hearing continues.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	When the market was higher and was on its way down towards the June LOWs, this fund manager said he was SHORTing and he said if you are not SHORTing, then it is better to hold cash and lose 9% to inflation than to buy stocks and lose 30% to the market. In this video, he said he advised his clients in late June to buy to ride the bear market rally and he got the rally which he has sold into and now he has started SHORTing again and holding cash. He expects the market to fall again to make a New Low below the June Lows. So this is one fund manager who is not in the bull camp and who does not subscribe to the theory that once S & P has rebounded from a bear market by 50% between peak and trough, it will not show us a New Low again. He says S & P will be down 30% by 2023.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	General Lucky, I ask only becoz I am curious. Not becoz I am a competitor or spying hor.  What does your companies do ? Manufacture products or provide services ? Consumer products or products used only by businesses ? Sorry hor. If you dont wish to answer, its okay. No hard feelings.  SuperLuckyCorn      ( Date: 16-Aug-2022 11:32) Posted: Gen Wave, 70% Asia. 15% Europe 15% US Most of the time is used to ensure management work properly, looking for anythings that can compete better with competitors (include spying), stocks management. Last 6 month part shortage is main headache. Nevertheless, think mid next year quite likely will have over-supply for many high end parts.

Are we seeing higher highs and higher lows or the other way round ? And place our chips alongside what we actually see, not what textbook analysis or data says. Put it this way - whoever followed textbook analysis and SHORTed all the way from since 31300 to now ........ chow tar leow. Whoever went LONG when 32000 broke...... today he or she is doing this, .
