Today, while many market watchers worry about whether the eurozone is about to fall apart, India and Pakistan provide a story of coming together. What is going on? Why NOW? Is it really possible that the conflicts and mistrust between the world's 2nd and 6th most-populous nations should continue to wane and may even turn into a golden era of rapprochement?

At the start of this year, EWI's Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast pointed to a trendline break in Bangladesh’s Dhaka General Index and said it was probably the first of many such events that would unfold in 2011 throughout Asia. The May issue added other emerging Asian bull markets that were likely to fall next. Just as forecast, one by one the region’s dominoes have continued to topple this year...

During the 16-year-long U.S. bear market in 1966-1982, the DJIA suffered several major declines and ultimately lost 14%. Over the same period, Japan’s Nikkei 225 gained 389% and India’s stock market gained 233%. Hong Kong and Singapore achieved even bigger gains. How can that be, you ask -- don't all global stocks move pretty much in unison?

Why is now "the most exciting Elliott wave juncture in months," as the headline says? Because Elliott wave analysis looks beyond the conventional gauges of trend like civil unrest, unemployment, etc. Stocks have a history of violent trend reversals when few investors expect them...

Here's what EWI's Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast Interim Report told subscribers on March 23, 2009: "In the March 2009 issue of The Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast, we showed how pattern, price, time and sentiment considerations were pointing to the end of multi-month, five-wave declines in most major Asian-Pacific indexes by late March. In most cases, those lows have likely been achieved." Since then Asian-Pacific stocks have had a very good run indeed...

We all know about the tragic earthquake and tsunami in Japan on March 11. The event reverberated throughout the world. It was also blamed for the losses in Japan’s NIKKEI 225 stock index. But did you know that the NIKKEI’s decline stopped and reversed right at a Fibonacci price support level of 61.8%?..

"A Merrill Lynch survey of global fund managers finds that long exposure to emerging markets has now dropped to merely 5%, the lowest reading since March 2009." That's one of the opening market insights you'll find in EWI's newest, March Asian-Pacific Financial Forecast. Is the low interest in emerging markets a bearish sign, or a contrarian bullish sign for Asian-Pacific stocks?

On Monday, January 17, China's Shanghai Composite stock index lost 3%; analysts attributed the sharp one-day decline to a recent Chinese government decision to raise reserves at China's banks. But from an Elliott wave perspective, one chart pattern was all you needed to know to anticipate this move.
