LT wave for January 2026

The LT wave did well in December.

There was mild sputtering in the first days and then the SPX climbed to just above 6900 in the second week. The middle week, which was expected to be weaker, saw a significant pullback, followed by a rally in the next week, when new record highs were reached. The final days of the month were not as strong as projected, so no perfection. But the overall pattern held up nicely.
Here is the LT wave for January:

Strength in the first days of the year and then a rather neutral second week (orange line stays at zero). And from 11th January onwards a long period of weakness is projected. It will be very interesting to see how that pans out.
Good luck and a happy 2026!

The usual caveats apply: the LT wave is experimental and purely based on natural cycles, so not on market or price data. Don’t bet the farm on it.

  1. Thanks Dan and Happy New Year to you too.

    Thanks for all that you do. I always look forward to your LT Wave emails arriving. The way the markets behave is fascinating.

    Here’s to a profitable year on the stock markets for all of us.

    1. Thanks David. It’s not working all the time (nothing does), but when it clicks in it often continues to do so for a good while. The cycles have a way of reasserting themselves.
