Why beware? Well, usually, when the market does exactly what I have posed as the likely outlook for a few weeks, the time is about due for us to get a good slap in the face as a reminder to stay humble.
The other reason is that if I continue to be right, this market will get a lot worse fast. That’s great if you are short stocks, and ranges toward terrible depending on how long you are. If you are a “long only,” money manager and you’re all in cash, then you might end up feeling pretty good too.
But the temptation will be to buy the dip. The success of that will depend on both your market timing and your holding period horizon. This is not your same old, same old, Fed policy driven bull market any more.
Remember Rule Number One. Don’t fight the Fed.

Long Term Weekly– The market made a typical intermediate term xxxx xxxx xxxx (subscriber version). by breaking a long term wave channel, then xxxx xxxx xxxx. Given the rollover in the 3-4 year cycle indicators, the rebound in the market suggests only a limited xxxx xxxx xxxx.
So far, there’s no material change in the long term projections of xxxx xxxx xxxx (subscriber version), but I now believe that they are wrong and will not be met. I’m giving these no weight, and instead focusing on the price patterns, support breaks, and cycle indicators to show us the way.
Monthly Chart – The market now needs to be above xxxx (subscriber version) at the end of February to get back into the two uptrend channels. Failure to do that would imply the beginning of top formation. If that does not happen, the target in February would be (subscriber version).
Cycle screening measures are in a short term bearish configuration, with the intermediate term leaning (subscriber version). Market weakness this week would (subscriber version). A rally this week would suggest (subscriber version). A bear market 6 month cycle up phase would be much shorter and cover less ground than a bull market up phase.
