Stock Market: Short-Term Pain
Even
President Trump came out today and he
said the stock market might be in for
some short-term pain right but he says
it's worth it because we're going to get a long-term gain and of course he's
referring to his tariffs or a trade war
that we're gonna win this trade war and
that's going to deliver the long-term
gain. It ain't! We're gonna have
short-term pain and then the pain is
gonna get worse
in the long run.

Gold: A Tight Trading Range
If you
look at the gold chart the range
is really getting compressed. We're
not breaking out but we're not breaking
down. It's getting narrower and narrower, we're really consolidating.

Stock Market: We Are In A Bear Market
We're in a
bear market, it's just not officially
acknowledged yet. You know, just like a lot of
times you know they don't acknowledge
the recession until after you have two
quarters of negative GDP growth but
clearly you're in the recession for a
long time before it's officially
admitted.
There's
one caveat if the Federal Reserve comes
in and changes the game by taking away
the rate hikes or launching QE 4 then we
may never make it to a bear market. But
if the Federal Reserve continues on its current path
and maintains the current pretense then
we are in a bear market and it's only a
question of time before it is officially
acknowledged.

Stock Market: More Down Quarters To Come
The market action that I've
been observing really to me looks like a
bear market.
For the first quarter all the major
stock market indexes were down. This was
the first time in 10 quarters as we had 9 consecutive positive quarters (I
think that's a record).
The US
stock market finally broke that winning
streak we'll see how investors who
thought the US stocks can only go up may react to their
first down quarter in ten. But it's not
going to be the last down quarter, I
think this could be the beginning of
several more down quarters to come.
