Bear Market Rally
Labeling The New Up-Leg
The short-term market surge certainly possesses the hallmarks of many previous bear-killers (or correction-killers)…but it also sports the look of many historical bear market rallies.
Bear Market Rally or Bull Market?
Major Trend Index improved to Neutral but not offering any guidance as to whether this is a bear market rally or a bull market.
New Bull? Second Leg?.....Or Bear Market Rally?
This move now appears to be a “second” leg, not an extraordinarily large bear market rally and not a new cyclical bull market.
So, What Happened?
Hopefully clients read the late July Interim memos. Truthfully, the move is a tad more than expected. What now? The last calculation of the Major Trend Index produced a still negative but improved reading. A new reading will be available August 7. Just a huge rally or a new bull market? I think it’s the latter, but want confirmation from our Major Trend Index.
