To many, China's recent economic data suggests their bull market is here to stay: The 3rd quarter 2009 saw a 16% leap in industrial production and retail sales, and a strong rise in GDP to 8.9%... Does that sound familiar? IT SHOULD. Just two years ago, China's economic numbers were similarly strong. Yet do you remember what Chinese stocks did in 2007? Take a look at this chart -- it's a good remind that economic growth is NOT what drives the stock market.

Early on October 26, the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the euro (and the most widely-traded forex pair) began an out-of-the-blue slide from near $1.50. If the dollar's dramatic show of strength in the midst of all the doomsday scenarios surprised you, you're not alone. Anyone looking at the Monday morning forex headlines was likely caught off guard. What's behind the dollar rally?

Need evidence that fundamental analysis is not a reliable gauge of future trend movements? Look no further than Asia's leading financial markets over the past six months. Go back to early 2009. At the time you needed night-vision goggles to see through the pitch dark that surrounded the economies of the Far East...

The word on the street is, the U.S. dollar is rapidly depreciating, so investment in the U.S. Treasuries defies common sense. You would think that would prompt foreign governments such as China and Saudi Arabia to stop investing in U.S. securities? But instead of selling their depreciating dollar-denominated assets, they are buying more. Here's why, says EWI's Bill Fox…

If you keep up with international news, you may have seen this picture on Britain's dailymail.co.uk on September 16. The story said: "The biggest and most secretive gathering of ships in maritime history lies at anchor east of Singapore. Never before photographed, it is bigger than the U.S. and British navies combined but has no crew, no cargo and no destination..."

In the past three weeks alone, China's formerly sizzling stock market has gone from bull market leader to bear market letdown.

In the last seven months, the Shanghai Composite Index has enjoyed a powerful winning streak to its highest level in a year. 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?

Watch this free May 8 video for an example of how Elliott wave analysis saw the current dollar weakness before it occurred.

In last night’s (March 24) televised Presidential press conference, the air of tension surrounding the ongoing economic crisis grew hotter than a habanero pepper in Hades. One of the most burning questions put to President Barack Obama was this: Is China right in calling for the creation of a new “super-sovereign” reserve currency to replace the currently dominant greenback?

For most investors, a barrage of bad economic news typically motivates an immediate “sell” order on their stocks holdings. But you may already know that the Elliott Wave Principle is a contrarian investment method. we at EWI believe that making investment decisions based on old news is like trying to drive a car by looking in the rear-view mirror. On that, the just-published, March 23 Asian Pacific Financial Forecast Interim Report has the following to say...

You may know that 2009 is the Chinese Year of the Ox. But I bet you didn’t know this: Each Chinese New Year is marked on the second new moon following the winter solstice. Trivia? Yes. Trivial? No. There is so much that we in the U.S. don’t know about China, yet we coexist with this country in a most unlikely symbiotic relationship....

A couple of years ago, the economic tilt the world had held for the past 50 years seemed to be changing: Quietly, the balance of commercial power was shifting. BRIC was the reason – an acronym for Brazil, Russia, India and China, a powerful new alliance. Well, here we are, three years later, and BRIC is not what it used to be...

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
