    Markets recovered last week and we are now close to breakeven for the current lunar Green Period. With a couple more Green Period days coming up I think the S&P will get above 1200 again, but what comes next remains to be seen. Here is the updated S&P 500 chart (click for larger image): Market…

    After a very volatile week the market is actually not down very much for the week. But once again we could see that staying out in lunar Red Periods is good for the heart. We have a few more Red Period days to come, but I don’t think it will take us to new lows.…

    Just a quick note for this week. I think I also deserve some vacation time. Excellent results continue. The lunar Red period that just ended produced a 51 point decline in the Nasdaq.

    Sorry, being a couple days late this week. The market is clearly stagnating now, not surprising in a lunar Red Period. Here we have the current Nasdaq chart (click for larger image): Could be a potentially double top here, but a setback is not so surprising after such a steep rally. We remain in Red…

    Markets made a nice bounce , as expected, but gave back most of the gains by the end of the week. So far it looks like we are in for another weak lunar Green Period. We remain in Green Period, so I am looking for the market to try the upside again. But if the…
