DrStool Posted April 17 Report Posted April 17 Yesterday, no one correctly identified our mystery guest, so we will have new contestants attempt it today, on What's My Line, with John Daly, Dorothy Kilgallen (corrected, not kilogallon), Bennet Cerf, Arlene Francis, and Steve Allen. New gold update coming later this morning but first, Back to the Gold Old Days 4/9/24. Also posted a warning yesterday, Incoming! Little bears, get under your desks and cover your heads with your arms. Warning Signs Abound, But Ignore Them for Now As for the here and now, the bottom is in, he will see you now. By the way, in France when it's time to see the doctor, he just pops out and comes for you. And they are always on time. Like the trains. OK, not the trains all the time. The ES, 24 hour S&P futures suggest at least a 5 day cycle low, but the up phase hasn't gotten off the ground and we don't know if it will. Looks like a nice base for a rally, but they might decide to just chop and slop and then break down. Key level is 5080 on the top of the range to get something going all the way to the next resistance level of 5093 woopdedoo. Next one above that would be 5110. Looking down, there's a spport line at 5033. Break that and they could plunge all the way to 5028 where there's some old spport. And then all the way to 5000 where lower channel descending spport comes in around 2:30 turn time. No More Downside The hourly cycle oscillators are bullish but only approaching zero from below. A little push up today would get those into positive territory which would suggest acceleration. On the other hand, stall and rollover from this level, and shorting might be in order.

DrStool Posted April 17 Author Report Posted April 17 Thing about Joe. He was often wrong, but never in doubt. And truthfully, I learned a lot from him. I still use OBV as one input for my stock screens and picks.

DrStool Posted April 17 Author Report Posted April 17 No pundit ever needs to be wrong in this business. You just have to know how to make predictions. If you know how to do that, then you can be right 100% of the time.
Jimbo Posted April 18 Report Posted April 18 FOOLED BY THE DOT PLOT (Alternative title: How to play the players 101) So the much anticipated slam dunk sure thing long bond rally fades into the monetary distance as print boy jay layers on the synthetic QT. It was always a mirage with a 2 trillion defecit. And once again the FED has played the players. Reminds me so much of the sure thing slam dunk treasury short play of mid 23...riding the treasuries issue flood...until they realised.....the rrp was their doom. Notice how the Eccles Ecclesiarch layers on the synthetic QE (the dot plot) and QT (we must fight inflation first) in alternating layers. Using it to play the players.
