And, according to a recent news story, "Crowds are back on Guangdong Road [China's 'Wall Street' equivalent] to discuss stocks" like tweens twittering celebrity gossip. The main topic of their conversation: Is the bull market in China back for good?

India: From Bust to BOOM-bay. The Path We Saw Coming

by Nico Isaac
5/18/2009 5:15:00 PM
On Monday, May 18, the biggest financial news story was not the 200-plus point stock market surge on Wall Street. It was the 2,000-plus point surge on Dalal Street. To wit: India's main Sensex Index soared more than 17%, triggering circuit breakers and halting operations for two hours in that market's first-ever "upside shutdown."

Different Markets? Expect Different Wave Patterns
What do you do when wave patterns don't match up?

by Vadim Pokhlebkin
4/7/2009 3:00:00 PM
As you learn Elliott wave analysis, at some point you'll start to do your own wave counts. That's when you may discover that sometimes, the counts in different but related markets don't quite "line up." That can be a puzzling moment. After all, shouldn't related markets move in sync? For answers, let's turn to experts.

2001 Repeated? How Stock Market Predicts Wars and Terrorism
History shows that social violence tends to FOLLOW stock market declines.

by Mark Galasiewski - Editor, Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast
12/5/2008 1:15:00 PM

Observed have offered various possible explanations for the recent violence in Mumbai, India. But from an Elliott wave perspective, there is one obvious reason: As this chart demonstrates, the violence is a product of the collapse in social cohesion that has followed the declines in Asia's social mood, as measured by the regional stock markets.

Asia Pacific Stocks: "Worst Half Since 1992"
The failure of conventional observers to explain WHY consumers buy fewer manufactured goods leaves their analysis lacking.

by Mark Galasiewski - Editor, Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast
7/2/2008 1:00:00 PM
Asia-Pacific stocks suffered their “worst first half [of the year] since 1992,” reported news headlines this week. Plus, Japanese and Chinese manufacturers reported significant declines in activity. You might think that the reported slump in manufacturing in the region’s two biggest economies might be a big reason for the poor performance of Asia-Pacific stocks in the first six months of this year. And, in a way, you’re right...but probably for the wrong reason.

by Susan C. Walker
5/30/2008 6:30:00 PM

China: The Road Ahead

In the last year, China’s image has taken more hits than Rocky Balboa’s punching bag as a tsunamic “wave of strife” crashes onto the People’s Republic shores. Today, I sit down with EWI’s Asian stock markets specialist Mark Galasiewski to discuss the “psychological” reasons for the reversal in China’s fortune.

Japan: Look At This Opportunity in the Nikkei
Or, How One Chart Can Offer a Whole Education

by Robert Folsom
5/5/2008 5:15:00 PM

The chart tells a six-year-plus story that features patterns in the country's main stock market, plus the accompanying psychological trends as revealed by two indicators: First by a sentiment index, and second by magazine covers. Yes, magazine covers. The "magazine cover" indicator remains one of the best-kept secrets in the financial world, though not from any lack of discussion about it on our part. Even so, U.S. markets are the traditional focus of analysts and investors who do follow the magazine cover indicator. Yet as you can see, it's clear that this indicator applies elsewhere -- namely in Japan...
