Will Stocks Get Stung By the "October Curse"? C'mon, Seriously

by Nico Isaac
9/11/2009 12:30:00 PM
More and more, Wall Street does with its old adages what department stores do with holiday decorations: they put them out months ahead of time so that shoppers already think "Easter bunny" at Thanksgiving. Case in point: The fall season is barely upon us and already, the financial mainstream is gearing up for the widely anticipated "October Curse" to strike down the bullish trend in stocks.

by Nico Isaac
12/1/2008 5:30:00 PM

According to the mainstream experts, the joined status of stocks and crude (to the downside) is as rare an event as Hallye's Comet. A myth-busting chart of the 52-week correlation between oil and stocks since 1996 strongly DISAGREES...

Oil Prices: Thorn In Stocks' Side?

by Nico Isaac
6/17/2008 4:15:00 PM
Word on Wall Street is -- High oil prices are to rising equities what a blaring siren is to baking soufflé. See: Friday, June 13 news item regarding the 365 point cave in of the Dow Jones Industrial Average: “Oil prices were the primary culprit [for] the epic collapse.” (Forbes)
The problem is -- there’s no concrete evidence whatsoever to support such a claim. Never has been.

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.
