25000 - Here we come. The September Buy B21 still operates.
The DJI easily jumped to another new high today. Its advance was more than matched by SPY,
the NASDAQ, QQQ and TECL. Powered by TXN's new highs, semi-conductors have bullishly turned
back up after testing their 65-dma. The week before Christmas is usually bullish. Since 1965,
the DJI has rallied 69% of the time over the next 5 trading days and has gained on average
1% over the next ten days and 1.9% over the next month. DIA's IP21 is negative and
it is the Public and foreign money which is now pushing up the DJI. But the DJI is on a
mission. It wants to reach 25,000 by Christmas and make big, splashy headlines to induce
still more buying. Today there was a big jump in the number of stocks above their 65-day ma.
The percentage rose from 54% to 59%. The advance is lifting more and more boats.
.
A buying stampede is under way. Among stocks, the strongest Bullish MAXCPs are the leaders,
but we are getting trading bounces in the stocks showing new red Stochastic Buys that
have rising 65-dma. And today, more buy outs were announced. See the list at this site:
http://www.mergerjournal.com/2016/12/19/mergers-acquisitions-and-buyouts-announced-on-December-19-2016/ (I want to start posting some of these charts each night. See further below.)
Crescendo or Take-Off? Stay Tuned.
It has taken a long time for the markets to build up to this point in time. The Republican wager
on the rich and Wall Street is under way. If 1926 is the best guide, then we may see a tradable
top in February. But if the market follows the scenarios posed by the the tax cuts of 1964 and 1986,
then we are not likely to see a top in April. This second scenario is interesting because that
is that is most frequent outcome after a September B21. In any case, enjoy the rally
and "don't try to call a top ahead of Peerless" has to be my counsel.

Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.

3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

12/15/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. The DJI is soaring into all-time
high territory where sell-orders cannot easily be bunched or placed confidently.
The upwards momentum in the DJI is accelerating. See the blue exponential
uptrend in the DJI chart below. The slope for this is Y = mx<>2. Its steepness
is as high as the software currently allows. Besides this, the NASDAQ's AI/200
score remains at a record high, 200 and QQQ burst into all-time high territory.
There are many very bullish technical signs. The DJI's optimized lower band around the
21-dma is at a record minimum, -1.5%. Short-term, the search for optimized,
new Stochastic Buys produced lots more tonight than was seen at any time this
past week. Apparently, a new market charge upwards is beginning.
We have to like the way the DJI has completely disregarded the often weak seasonality
of the first two weeks of December. Hedge fund Bears have a big problem now. They
must cover or lose clients when they write their year-end reports. All this is occurring
at exactly the same time when other fund managers are engaging in aggressive window-
dressing by buying leading DJI-30 stocks AND many corporations, flush with more
and more cash, shop around for smaller companies that they can buy out. (Regarding
Buyouts, see the discussion of FOXA and LNCE below.)
BUBBLE
The only problem I can see now is the Bitcoin's vertical advance. This is a bubble,
if ever there was one. It is backed by nothing but emotion and greed. It will surely
end badly. Now that it is about to be traded in Chicago, shorts may slow it down.
If it crashes badly, the spill-over could adversely affect normal financial markets.
Watch its daily prices on Yahoo. It cannot escape Government controls and
taxation. The Libertarians who think that they have found a way to do this are
only fooling themselves and others. Wall Street and CBOE insiders will know when
regulatory stresses will be placed on Bitcoin. I expect that we will see a head/shoulder
top when it is ready to decline significantly.

DIS Buyout of FOXA
Terms of this cautious buyout would seem to leave room for a possible bidding war
and more FOXA stock appreciation. "In the fullness of time", this will become
known. What is clear right now is that there were big buyers coming into FOXA
in October, if we judge from the blue Accumulation on its price weakness back then
followed by a big increase in volume. See how false looking the final drop to 25
looked from our vantage point. This should be a technical pattern that we can
profitably look for in other stocks, especially now that the general regulatory and
financial climate for Buyouts and Mergers would seem to becoming favorable.
See https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/14/business/dealbook/disney-fox-deal.html
Flat Top Breakouts, High Accumulation and Volume Surges
The second technical pattern often occurring just before a buy-out is announced
is a flat-top breakout with excellent internals. See LNCE below. In this case
the "secret talks" became public knowledge.

12/14/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. But some minor profit-taking cannot
be ruled out. Down Volume was disproportionately heavy today. It outweighed
Up Volume by 460 million shares. DIA's IP21 has even turned negative.
Clearly there is some profit-taking going on now that the DJI is approaching its
3% upper band. We see this especially in the MDY (midcaps), IWM (Russell-2000),
OIH and GASL, which now show across-the-board red and bearish Quicksilver
readings. See Table 2.
I admit that it can't be a positive that SOXL is having a hard time recovering from
its 65-dma. But Texas Instruments made a new high today AND Boeing does not seem
to even mind that American Airlines ordered $25 billion in jets from Airbus. (Chump
change to Boeing.)
But don't worry yet. In the middle of next week, the market typically starts rising
from the bullish Santa Claus effect. Secondly, the new wave of big-time
mergers may now be starting. Today, for $50+ billion, Disney bought the lion's
share of 20th Century Fox.
What's more, the cutting of the corporate tax rate and reducing the amount of income tax
the very rich pay IS extraordinarily bullish for the stock market and the economy, too,
at least for a while. True, much of this may have already been built into stock prices.
But the Big Picture, shown in Tables 5-7 below shows that Corporate Profits
are already very strong, that the monthly Job Creation numbers are well above
the 200,000 level that is bullish for the market and that workers' wages are moving
up very slowly. So, "inflation" is tame. Bullishly, Gold is going nowhere and the
FED is actually moving very slowly to raise rates. This is still a 'Goldilocks Economy'.
And now it's about to get a super-stimulus in the form of a big tax cut for precisely those
who buy 95% of all stocks. The market can still go much higher. Why sell now?
At least, wait for Peerless to give some sort of Sell.

It also provides a useful short-term outlook of these sectors ETF's and the sectors they represewnt
Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

==========================================================================
==========================================================================12/13/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. The DJI has about reached the top of its price
bands. The NYSE A/D Line is lagging slightly, but our primary internal strength indicators,
P-I and IP21 are sufficiently positive to prevent a Peerless Sell. Accordingly, we must
believe the message of its chart, namely that there has been a channel-breakouts and
a rally to 25500-25750 must now be called for. As mentioned here, the large majority
of the rallies that follow such a strong market continue to rise for three or four more months
into the new year. That remains the most likely scenario now. Of course, we have to be
selective, Table 1's most bullish ETFs remain those with across-the board (blue) Quicksilver
ratings and those sectors that have the highest percentage of their stocks making new
highs (Table 3) and are above their 65-dma. (Table 4).
Fidelity and MorningStar Sector Rankings
Because there is a fairly continuous short-term rotation among sectors, it is advisable
for traders to watch the 21-day performance rankings of the Morningstar Star and
Fidelity Funds. Those at the top are apt to go still higher until they break their 21-dma
uptrend. A similar approach can be used for the leveraged ETF group, except that
here I would watch the 5-day ranking and use closes below the 5-day pivot-point
and rallies to extremes above the 5-day ma as times to take profits. Most of the bullish
MAXCPs come from top performing sectors. Meanwhile, the top Tahiti (longer term)
stock in the DJI-30, ranked by AI/200 score, is MSFT. Because December is so bullish
generally and experiences very few big sell-offs, the stocks giving red stochastic Buys
should prove to be profitable trading vehicles for the next two weeks.

NVDA (See chart further below) has turned down sharply since it reported stellar
earnings. Its Closing Power is now making new one-year lows far ahead of prices,
its Accum. Index is negative and we see S14 high volume dumping signals. Technically,
we have to say, "Sell". Something is wrong with NVDA. We must wait for Professionals
to turn bullish. But let's give more chance for SOXL to firm up at its nearby support.

It also provides a useful short-term outlook of these sectors ETF's and the sectors they represewnt
Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

12/12/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. Despite the NASDAQ's decline
and the fact that there were 260 more down than up on the NYSE, the DJI
moved up 118 today. All but 20 points in the DJI's gain was made by possible
by big jumps up in its two highest priced DJI stocks, Goldman Sachs (+7.55) and
Boeing (+6.78). (The divisor is .145. So the 14.33 gain in these two stocks
boosted the DJI by 98.8 points.)
Are the DJI's highest priced stocks doing too much of the heavy listing?
Not yet. Look at the strong uptrends of the A/D Line and the Tiger Index
of the SP-500. This is still a broad advance. I expect it to widen more
as the new year starts.
I have observed that RCA's position in early 1929 could be a model for
what may still happen with Boeing. By February 1929 when RCA split 5:1 and
became a $100 stock again, it had risen almost 100% from where it had been
in October 1928. Boeing is now the stock that almost every fund manager
wants to show in its end-of-the-year holdings. What will it be when it splits?
Secondly, the break-out above the top of its 1600-point wide price channel
at 24000 posits a new minimum price target now of 25600. So, one day's weakness
in the breadth is probably not enough to stop the DJI now, especially in this typically
bullish month of December. Peerless has been built to call major tops. For
a major top to occur in December we need to see much weaker P-I and IP21
scores. (They were negative in 2007 before that year's prescient December S9
of that year. They are very positive now.)
At the least, we need to see the NYSE A/D Line break its uptrend as it did in
1968 and then show immediate weakness for the rest of the month. The Fed will
raise rates tomorrow. But they will not raise them so sharply as to hurt the Retailer's
in this their most important month. Yellen will pass along to her successor the big
challenge of how and when the stock market 'bubble' is to be safely cooled off.
Thirdly, in the Table below, we see the DJI's strength, such as we now see in mid-
December, was almost always a harbinger of still more gains next year, so long
as the P-I and IP21 remain amply positive and the DJI does not even dip far enough
back for the next two weeks to get a Buy B13 (Santa Claus buy).

Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

================================================================================
12/11/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. The DJI broke out above the
top of its 1600-point wide price channel at 24000. Classic technical
analysis suggests a target now of 25600 as a result.As to when the next tradable top may occur in the DJI, the lesson of the 1926
tax cut could be interpreted as meaning a top will occur about February 11th
next year or two weeks before the President signs the final tax bill. Back then,
a two-month 17% decline in the DJI followed. (I posted the DJI's 1926 chart in
last night's Hotline.) But the bearishness then, I believe, was mostly a result
of aggressive Fed tightening and the abrupt end of the Florida Real Estate bubble.
And to show we should not be so quick to take profits on the tax-cut's signing,
I also showed last night that buying on the signing of the Reagan tax cut in October
1986 was actually the correct trading approach, not selling. (Again see the chart
of 1986-1987 there).
I think there's another way to gauge when we might get a Sell and that is by finding
all the cases we can of past year-long DJI bull market like our own where there
were no serious declines and the NYSE A/D Line was showing confirming strength.
I can only find five since 1929. (Before then, we do not have Advance/Decline
data.)
One more thing. If we compare the very narrow optimized lower band numbers
below the 21-day ma, the closest to our own now, -1.5%, is 1995's -2.0%
optimized lower band. If this is right, then we are in the middle stages of a very
long bull market.
Very strong Bull Market Subsequent Peak the Following Year
------------------------ ----------------------------------------------
1935 4/6/1936 S9,S12 11% decline, then NHs
1955 3/4/1955 No signal 7% decline, then NHs
1958 8/3/1959 S9 9% decline, nominal NH.
1985 3/27/1986 No signal 4.5% decline, then NHs
1995 3/18/1996 S1 5% decline, then NHs.
Even with though the DJI is already up nicely this month, it could very well
keep going still higher in keeping with the Santa Claus rally phenomenon.
Note in Table 1, how almost all the ETFs and Stocks we track there are now
above a rising 5-day ma. This is short-term bullish. The DJI is showing
bullish-blue-across-the-board strength.
New Optimized Stochastic Buys
If you believe that secondary stocks will hold up for the rest of this year
and quite possibly lift-off upwards in January, then consider buying some
of the stocks that have rising 65-day moving averages and show new
red optimized-Stochastic Buys. I will start posting some each night
for the next two weeks. Tonight's can be viewed here.

12/8/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. The expected minor seasonal weakness
again did not materialize. Instead, the market rallied to celebrate another month's
good Jobs' numbers and signs from food commodities that official Inflation is not a
problem. FAS and DIA show across-the-board Bullish Blue technical indicators
in Table 1 below. The strongest DJI stocks, BA, HD and CAT made fine gains again
today. Their leadership is expected to continue and take the DJI to new highs. The
NASDAQ and Russell-2000 may have to wait until the start of the next year.

12/8/2017 Bullish MAXCPs Bearish MINCPsBe Aware of 4-Year Presidential Cycle's Influence on DJIA's Moves.
In years after a Presidential Election year since 1945, buying on December 10th
and selling April 30th the following year would have gained a trader only 3.1%
This number is considerably less than the average gain over this period for all years
since 1945. The reason is that the first five months of the second year in the Presidential
cycle are not so bullish as in other years. Readers might want to save the table below
future reference. It comes from the new Peerless Technical book I am writing to
explain the bases of the various Peerless Buys and Sells. This data suggest that February
and March may pose seasonal problems for the market.

But there remain some problems. Leading Semi-conductors could not power
up through their 65-dma and that turned SOXL down today. QQQ shows a potential
head/shoulders pattern. And there were more MINCP than MAXCPs today.
I would abide by the direction and trend of the 65-dma. SOXL and QQQ
should find ample support there. Keep in mind that the NASDAQ's AI/200
score is a remarkably bullish 199 of 200. IWM may need to bide its time for
now, but I would expect it to be the beneficiary of a lot of new investment
funds at the start of the next year.
How Two Big Tax Cuts Affected The Market: 1986 and 1926
The second Reagan tax cut was signed on October 22, 1986. It cut the top income
rate from 50% to 38.5%. You can see below that the DJI immediately went higher,
but the NASDAQ did not rise until the start of 1987. I would judge that a useful
guide now for how the NASDAQ and smaller Russell-2000 stocks will behave
over the next three months. A lot of this untaxed money will, I think, finds its way
into stocks, stock-buy-backs and outright mergers and acquisitions, at least until
the Fed significantly tightens. That and the collapse of the Florida Land boom in
February 1926, brought about a 15% drop in the DJI soon after Coolidge signed
his big tax-cut.

Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

12/7/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. The expected minor seasonal weakness
seems unable to hold back leading DJI and tech stocks. Look at BA's
soaring to another new high. DJI Strength tomorrow would be quite bullish.
Note that Wednesday night I recommended buying SOXL because it seemed
to have successfully tested its rising 65-dma. Each rally to its 65-dma for the
last 12 months has brought a quick recovery back to the recent highs. This is
a very bullish sign. It is a reminder that the NASDAQ's AI/200 score is a
record 199 and that the optimized lower band for the DJI is only 1.5% below
its 21-dma, the shallowest optimized lower band in more than 102 years.
(I only use the DJI's back data to 1915.)
I've suggested that seasonality and a pause in technical strength was likely
to bring about a shallow DJI decline likely over the next week or so A 3%
DJI decline from its highs seemed to be in keeping with its key values when it
reached its 3% upper band. This would mean a decline to its 23500,
just below the current 21-dma around the 17th. After that, I said, we should then
expect the normal Santa Claus B13 rally. But that may be too cautious.
We have to take advantage of new opportunities and new technical
evidence as they are presented. I said last night that the DJI would look a lot
stronger if Home Depot and Caterpillar would rise too, besides BA and GS.
That is exactly what took place today. And significantly, Professionals today
become net buyers of DIA. Its Closing Power turned up from its 21-day ma |
instead of dropping below it. Tomorrow, it will only take a 20 points higher
close by the DJI to turn up the 5-day ma and give DIA an across-the-board
Bullish (blue) QuickSilver status. That development would be quite bullish and
suggest that the bearish immediate seasonality has been overcome.
What would really be impressive would be if both the DJI and the leading
techs, especially SOXL, would advance at the same time. It would show
that the rally is being staged by elite Professionals who are shifting money
from one group to another.
Seasonality As Bench-Mark
The new seasonality study here of the DJI since 1929 suggests that there
should be a bottom about 5 trading days from now, if the market
behaves perfectly typically. See the new Seasonality (1) Table just
below the Links to Charts. A 1.4% rally in the DJI should then follow
through the 22nd trading day from now. This has some merit because
it encompasses 86 years of data. But it can be faulted, if you believe
the Depression and War years should be considered unduly dismal and
improbable. In that case, consider in Seasonality (2) Table and only the
years after a Presidential Election since 1945. The next DJI bottom
according to the more limited data in these 18 cases should take place
9 trading days from now and the next peak 18 trading days hence.
I suggest that we use these numbers as bench-marks to see if the DJI
now is stronger or weaker than it typically was in the past at this time
of year. If there is no decline over the next week, the DJI should be
considered unusually bullish.

=========================================================================
=========================================================================
12/6/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. But yesterday's weakness
shifted the odds in favor of an additional 2%-3% decline in the DJI.
Although, some leading NASDAQ techs like ADBE and GOOG rebounded
up from their rising 65-dma, I would say the shallow decline in DJI, SPY,
OEX and NYSE will continue, probably until December 17th when we
should get a seasonal Peerless Buy B13. I think SOXL may be ready to
rally. It has reached its 65-dma and its steep Closing Power downtrend
has been slightly broken.
Note (1) the further weakness in the Hourly DJI's DISI-OBV Line, (2) how many
more bearish MINCP stocks there are than bullish MAXCPs, (3) how the
DJI's Accumulation Index has matched the other Indexes and dropped
below its 21-dma and (4) how the DJI has now closed 133 points below its
5-day ma "pivot-point". In this fourth consideration, it matches all the major ETFs
shown in Table 2, except FAS, RETL and GLD.
As I showed two nights ago, it is quite common for the DJI to slip a little in
the two weeks before December 20th, at which point a Santa Claus
Buy B13 signal very frequently occurs and the DJI rallies back to new highs. Since
1965, over the two weeks following December 6th the DJI has risen only
47.1% of the time. But big declines in on-going bull markets are very rare in
Decembers. There was one in 2007, but the P-I and IP21 Indicators were
negative as the DJI tagged the upper band and a clear S9/S12 was given.
As I mentioned last night, the other case was in 1968. A breaking of the NYSE
A/D Line long uptrend next would add to the several technical parallels between
now and then. So, that is worrisome. But big declines in early December,
especially in the year after the Presidential Election just do not seem to occur. The
exception was in 1941, but even in this case there was a decent Santa Claus
rally at the end of the year back up to the upper band.
So far, the SP-500 pullback from the top of its price channel resistance
looks quite limited and in keeping with the profit-taking that might be
expect from those who automatically sell on expected bullish news, in this
case the tax-cut legislation passing the Senate.
It's bullish that the NASDAQ held up today. SOXL should probably be bought.
See its chart below. Now we need to see the Biotechs abort their menacing
head and shoulders pattern. Solid rallies in the Housing and Infrastructure leaders
would be more impressive than jumps in beaten down stocks like CMG or
sectors like the Retailers.

=======================================================================
12/5/2017 The September Buy B21 still operates. But today's decline tilts the scales
downward for a 2%-3% more decline in the DJI. From the research I did last night,
we saw that about half the time, there is a minor early (first half) December pullback
even when Peerless gives no Sell signal after the DJI runs up above the 2.3% band
in an on-going bull market. What shifts the short-term trend to DOWN today is:
(1), the Hourly DJI's DISI-Line breaking its uptrend,
(2), that several indexes' (NASDAQ, SP-500, NYSE and OEX)
Tiger Accumulation Index have dropped below its 21-day ma,
(3), the number of MINCPs was three times higher than the number
of MAXCPs and
(4) the weak breadth and volume today.
The DJI's internals do not look bearish, but they are not as positive as one would expect
to see in a really strong December. (Compare the key values with those at other
taggings of the upper band in December in the table I showed last night and finished
today.) The good news is that the only case when a December's lower band tagging
failed in the year after a Presidential Election to produce a quick rally was in 1941,
after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Let's hope there is no outbreak of war with North Korea.
So, without a Peerless Sell, all we can expect is a shallow, early December decline.
But it should be noted, that we did not miss a Peerless Sell S1 by much today.
Traders should respect the direction of the 5-day ma and Closing Power trends.
See Table 1 below and use the 5-dma pivot-points if you are a trader.
The December 1968 Top Shows Some Scary Parallels
Since 1929, only one bull market may be said to have ended in December. It occurred in
December 1968. Prior to the 1968 top, there had been a very speculative bull market,
especially in smaller, less well-know companies. Interest rates had been kept mostly flat
during the 1969 Presidential Election campaign. With the Election over, the FED did not
have to worry about appearing to play favorites and started raising rates aggressively. The
early December Peerless Sell S1 was the result of the DJI's Slow Stochastic-20
dropping below 80 in early December in a Presidential Election Year when internals
were not very robust. The internals that mattered here were IP21 and OBVPct.
The IP21 had to be below +.11 and the ObvPct had to be below .232. Today our
DJI's Pct-D Stochastic-20 also dropped below 20. But we got no Peerless Sell signal
today for two reasons: first the OBVPct now is slightly too high, at .240 and, second,
this Peerless S1 is programmed only to occur in Presidential Election Years. So, the data
tonight did not give a Sell S1. But the parallels are certainly there. Besides the OBVPct,
the 21-dma AROC and IP21 are almost the same. Adjusted for the number of shares
traded, the P-Indicator is lower now than in 1968. The big difference is that this is
not a Presidential Election Year with all the uncertainties and changes that this can bring.
So this is a warning. Now we should, I think, watch to see if our market next shows the
same three subsequent bearish developments of December 1968, namely that the
DJI's Accumulation Index dropped below its 21-dma, the NYSE A/D Line broke its
uptrend and, most important, there was no Santa Claus rally.
1968 December Top's (below) Development shows us
what to be wary of next. This 1968 top led to a two-year
bear market. Unlike in our case, smaller stocks
were the leaders in the 1967-1968 bull market.
Trouble Is Brewing among The Tech Stocks
I have said that we should expect to see a number of bearish head/shoulders
patterns at the next major top. We don't see them in the DJIA-30 stocks,
but we do see them in a number of tech stocks. In addition, several bearish
flat-top breakout failures have recently occurred. These, too are warnings.
H/S patterns:
ADBE - now testing its rising 65-dma
ATVI - now below its falling 65-dma
BIDU - now below a rising 65-dma.
NFLX - below its flat 65-dma
NVDA - today broke below 65-dma.
TSLA - below its falling 65-dma
XLNX - below its falling 65-dma.
False flat-top breakout
AMAT - broke today below rising 65-dma.
AMZN
LRCX
QCOM
Testing falling 65-dma
AMGN
GOOG - testing 50-dma
Broke 65-dma today
LMT
I suspect that the NASDAQ and QQQ will need to successfully retest their rising
65-dma before they and the general market can again move to new highs. Typically,
Peerless gives a Santa Claus Buy signal soon after December 16th. That seems like a
reasonable scenario here.

Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.

W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

=========================================================================
12/4/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21 but clearly|
something is wrong with tech stocks and the previous leaders, the semi-conductors.
Perhaps, the tax bill is seen is penalizing tech stocks in California. I've warned
that their 5-dma had turned down, that they were showing bearish red candle-sticks
and falling Closing Powers. The size of their decline may start to worry traders
who are play DIA and SPY if it continues. Still, Peerless has given no Sell. Declines in
December are usually shallow. And perhaps, the tech stocks will recover now that they
are nearer their rising 50 and 65 day moving averages.
Peerless has not given a Sell on the DJI, but that does not mean there can
not be a pullback in tech stocks. In fact, each Buy B10 this year has coincided
with the start of a pullback in the NASDAQ. Even the DJI could pullback,
despite our not getting a Peerless Sell, but that is rare in a rising market.
History does show a few DJI shallow retreats in the first part of December.
They usually end when the in two weeks when the Santa Claus Buy signal kicks
in after December 16th.
We will need more evidence that the DJI will fall back enough to make it
worthwhile to sell DIA and SPY. Remember that the DJI is ruled by its
highest priced 13 stocks. Those are still quite strong. See the Tiger Index
of them below.
For the first time in more than a month the number of MINCPs
was greater than the number of MAXCPs. (See table 2 below.)
Professionals are taking profits. But not yet in the DJIA. These
are the blue chips. The very wealthy prefer their safety. DIA's
Closing Power is still rising unlike that of COMPQX, TECL, SOXL,
and QQQ.
What are the Odds for A Pullback?
All the DJI's key values have now turned positive. This helps prevent
but does not preclude a shallow retreat.
If we only look at the bull market cases where the DJI reached the 2.5% band
and showed reasonably strong internals, we still find declines. Given the
DJI's positive key values now, below are the closest early December parallels
that I can find from 1929-1972. The rest will be shown tomorrow night. Without
a Peerless Sell, a big decline in the DJI and SP-500 are very unlikely.
When there was no Peerless Sell in the first half of December and the DJI closed
more than 2.2% over the 21-day ma, there were an equal number of shallow
pullbacks and a continued rally. See below. (added 12/5/2017)

Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

=================================================================================12/1/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21
The new tax cut and prospective ending of most regulations on
big banks have sent the market soaring. The DJI has shot up past
the last resistance line. No one knows where to sell DIA. And with
the DJI soaring, the other indexes will almost certainly rally too.
Study the chart below. Tiger lets us calculate the best fitting lower band.
Never since 1915 has the separately optimized lower band been
closer to the 21-day ma. Shorts are miserable. A buying stampede
usually follows when the optimized band is below 3% for a year. What
will happen with it down to 1.5%? We are seeing it now. A "Melt-UP"
is occurring.
The "Wager on The Rich"
The stock market dare not go down now. A rally now is an essential part of the
belief system of its Republican supporters. Most big shareholders are Republicans.
So don't expect them to be sellers. Stocks now are the cheerleaders for the Trump
economic Revolution. They have to keep rising at this juncture. A decline now
would undercut the whole rationale for the tax-cut. The stock market rally is the
primary mechanism by which "Trickle-Down" will boost the Economy. It will
put much more money in the hands of affluent consumers and lift general
Consumption and it will almost certainly lead to more corporate share buy-backs
and buy-outs of other corporations.
The lesson of the 1920s and the 1980s argues persuasively that this
will lift stocks for a year or two longer. The big Coolidge Tax cut was signed
into law in February 1926. The DJI, of course, did not peak until September 1929,
despite a Crash in the Florida Real Estate in 1926. The big Second Reagan tax cut
became law in October 1986. The DJI did not peak until October 1987.
It's true that the original Reagan tax was passed in 1981. But it was short-circuited by
20% interest rates. There's no way we will see rates like this again for a long while.
So, though, some will suggest it's time to take profits, don't you believe them. Who
in his right mind would take profits this year when taxes will be lower next year.
Nor are the Tax Cuts and Deregulation the only things the the Republican Congress will
do to help corporations and the stock market. Soon big chunks of Western national parks
will be leased or sold off for mineral exploration. It is only a matter of time before
Social Security is privatized if the Republicans stay in control of Congress in 2018
and 2020. They need a roaring economy. To achieve that end, the stock market
must accelerate up now, not top out.
Two Technical Discoveries To Appear In New Peerless Book (due soon)
In putting together my new Peerless books, I recently discovered two new
ways to make use of Tiger's optimized variable width bands around the 21-dma.
In doing so, I looked back at the year's optimization for the upper and lower
bands back to 1915. The program calculates the best bands to capture about
91%-92% of the DJI's closes for a year. Here the optimized lower band's width
was determined separately from the upper band's optimized band width..
The first discovery was simply that then when the year's optimized lower band
around the 21-dma was under 3%, as is true now, the odds are quite high that a bull
market will follow for the next year. See the optimized upper and lower bands in the chart
above. Bull market advances followed the nine years low downside volatility
shown here: 1944, 1945 (until mid 1946), 1954, 1958, 1963, 1964, 1985, 1995,
and 2016. Now we see an optimized lower band of only 1.5%.
There are four exceptions. Intermediate tops occurred in the year after 1952
and in the year after 1993. Bear markets twice, in the year following 1961
and 1972.
The second discovery was that when the yearly optimized lower band
ceases being wider than the yearly optimized upper band after 3 years
of being dominant, market fear is ending and 66.7% of the time the DJI rallies.
Here is the table I am putting in the new book.Buying When The Streak of "Fearful Years" Ends

11/30/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21
The DJI has not gotten past its 3% band very often since the bull market began
in 2009. A pullback should come as no surprise. But I would not expect
it to be very deep. Since 2010, fresh moves to the 3% upper band have
occurred only nine times when the DJI was making new highs. Without a
new Peerless Sell, the odds based on the six cases since 2010 favor more
new highs by 5:1.

"Technically"
We just saw a bullish flat-top B10 breakout in the DJI. It is now above all resistance
lines that can be easily drawn. The path of least resistance will probably be upwards,
at least, until the tax cut/health care bill is passed. Then will be a good enough time
to take profits. For now, the DJIA is clearly were the action is and from a Peerless vantage
point, breadth and our IP21 (accumulation) are good enough to allow more gains
even though the DJI is now 3% over the 21-dma. While it's true that a few
of the DJI stocks' rises today caused the DJI's very splashy advance, it's not true
this was a narrow advance within the DJI-30 itself. Our Tiger Index chart below shows
the DJI-30's A/D Line easily made another new high today. See how strong
the Tiger Index of 30 DJI stocks has looked for some time. (This is one of the
linked charts posted each night
"Hot money" always goes where the action is. The 30-DJI stocks are big, but
they can be pushed around a lot by aggressive Professionals and hedge-fund
speculators, especially when there are lots of shorts who can be run in. Professionals
love to embarrass bearish "talking heads" who appear on TV and Yahoo News.
So, today the DJI today shot up through the 12400 resistance. As is the convention
in these circumstances, the high-priced DJI stocks were the leaders. Because the
DJI-30 is weighted by the price of its individual components, its percentage gain today
was disproportionately greater than the others indexes. See below how well 8 of the
10 DJI stocks over $150 did.
Let's look at their individual charts to get a sense of their immediate upside potential.
With the DJI's divisor now 0.145, a mere 1-point advance by each of these 10 stocks
would, by itself, lift the DJI up 69 points.
I still see much more potential in BA if it can get past its last resistance-line,
which is where it closed today. GS has 7 more points of upside potential.
But most bullish are UNH, HD and CAT. They are above all resistance and
rising freely.
BA 276.80 +7.50 Short-term resistance reached. Any additional
advance is likely to produce an even steeper rise.
GS 247.64 +6.28 7.36 points away from previous peak at 255.
MMM 243.14 +5.13 Short-term resistance is 3 points higher.
UNH 228.17 +5.29 Above all resistance and likely to zoom much higher
if ObamaCare is killed along with the tax cut's enactment.
HD 179.82 +2.57 Above all resistance and likely to go much higher
MCD 171.97 +1.54 Short-term resistance is just one point higher.
AAPL 171.85 +2.37 Short-term resistance is 3 points higher.
IBM 153.97 +.42
CAT 141.15 +3.09 Above all resistance and likely to go much higher.

=========================================================================
11/29/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21
Banks stocks may become the new market leaders, for good reasons.
As a technician, I am bound to say that it is the DJI's flat-top breakout into all-time high
territory (i.e. the new Peerless Buy B10) which is bringing the current challenge by the DJI of
24000. It remains to be seen if the DJI will be able to power through this resistance and
possibly start a swift vertical ascent above all apparent resistance and points where sellers
can bunch their orders. Technically, we should appreciate the historical bullishness of our
September B21. These Buys have averaged a gain on 17.3% in their eight previous cases.
This alone should keep us fully engaged in the rally. So should the fact that December has
brought a gain in the DJI more than 70% of the time going back to 1915.
What should we make of today's weakness in tech stocks? The lesson of the last
year's similar sell-offs in this group is that these declines quickly "peter out". As soon
as they close back above their 5-day pivot-points, I would rate them as buys again.
Today's high volatility (surging financials and falling tech stocks) is simply, I would say,
a case of lots of money being shifted into what is considered a "sure thing", bank stocks.
De-regulation of the industry seems a certainty for as long as Trump is President, as long
as the CFPB, the agency charged with watch-dogging big banks, is run by a man who
ridicules banking regulations at every chance and as long as Jerome Powell is Fed Chairman.
It is not clear that these folks want any outsiders to tell big banks what they must do. So,
for the foreseeable future, this means lots more loans, more riskier loans, de-emphasized compliance
protocols and much higher profits, all of which will soon be taxed at a lot lower rate. And if
the tax-cut does stimulate the economy, as is very likely, banking should be even more profitable.
Given this very bullish outlook for bank stocks, I believe, Professionals are now rushing to shift
a lot more funds into FAS and into both big banks and regional banks. Today, some of that
money came out of the exuberant tech sector stocks. Traders saw the trend-breaks in QQQ, SOXL,
AAPL, ADBE ... TECL, etc. and they hastily all tried to lock in profits at once. Quick sell-offs like
we saw today in these tech stocks have happened a couple of time this past year after a Peerless
Buy B10 on the DJIA. See the DJI-NASDAQ chart below. In the past, these tech sell-offs
quickly ended. I suspect the same will be true here once they can rise back above their
5-day ma pivot points. See these pivot-points in Table 1 further below.
The renewed strength in FAS and Bank stocks is good for the DJI. A new bear market
is not likely to occur while they are strong. Moreover, if war with North Korea was,
in fact, imminent, I think we would not be seeing them rising. Watch Goldman Sachs,
especially, because of how well "connected" it is to the decision-makers that run
the country.

11/28/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21
Santa came weeks ahead of schedule for the Big Banks and Wall Street.
The bulls are stampeding on Wall Street. The major markets should all
go higher, at least until the tax cut legislation is finally signed.
Note the new B10 and V-I of =38.
Next year's new Fed Chairman Powell told Senator Warren that he could not
see any area of banking where regulations needed to be tightened. Pres.
Trump's appointment to be acting head of the CFPB assured reporters that
the President had won a mandate to dismantle all onerous regulations on big banks.
And the Senate may vote as early as later this week on the new tax cuts for
big corporations and the wealthy. With all there was for Wall Street to celebrate,
it was a little disappointing that breadth was only a little more than 2:1, advancers over
decliners. Semi-conductors, which were in over-bought territory, actually fell
a little today.
Still, who's complaining? All the major market indexes were up, especially
the DJIA and FAS, representing banks. Peerless generated a reinforcing Buy B10
today despite the fact that the V-Indicator was a negative -38.
In the past, how significant is that? There have been 14 closed-out B10s with a
negative V-I key value. They averaged a DJI gain of 4.2% when the next Peerless
Sell signal occurred. Often the lack of volume de-energized the rally. 5 of the 14
either brought small losses or less than a 0.7% gain. All paper losses were small except
one case in 2015, which saw an unusually large paper loss of 8.2%.
What's important now is that the DJI has broken out of its trading range into all-time
high territory. The path of least resistance is up. Professionals are joining in and
buying aggressively. Just as the DJI did not sell off in September and that was
a clear sign of strength, so too, the DJI has hardly pulled back in this normally weak
period just after Thanksgiving. We are in an unusually bullish market. Most of this new
money is flowing into the leading ETFs (shown in Blue in Table 1), the Nifty-30 stocks
and the bullish MAXCPs. Now is not a good time to sell short. If it were, we
would be seeing a lot more Bearish MINCPs than we now are getting.

It also provides a useful short-term outlook of these sectors ETF's and the sectors they represewnt
Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.
6 Note price trend-lines, support/resistance and price patterns on charts.

11/27/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21
Expect higher prices but hold back on new commitments.
Since Mondays often bring on a brief wave of public selling in an on-going bull market,
today's mild decline can be viewed as constructive and bullish. Most investors seem
unwilling to take profits this year if taxes on trading profits will be much less next year.
And like others, we are waiting to see if December brings its usual boost to the market.
As long as the Fed does not make any menacing comments about "Inflation" and
the need to raise rates to fight it, we should still see higher prices. One way or another,
a big tax cut is likely. It's that prospect which should sustain the bulls a while longer.
However, I would wait before putting new funds to work. The DJI's 21-day momentum
(the 21-day AROC) has almost turned flat. Big banks are under a cloud. JPM shows
an unmistakable head/shoulders pattern. Biotechs cannot find their footing. And many
tech stocks look quite over-bought and in need of some sort of a pullback. Historically,
the DJI rises only 43% of the time over the next week and 47% over the next two weeks.
That, at least, has been its pattern since 1965.
The good news, first, is that there are few attractive Bearish MINCP stocks. This shows
that even bearish Professionals are betting on a Santa Claus rally. Secondly, gold stocks
remain in the doldrums. If the general market were about to decline, I would expect gold
stocks to have rallied 20% -30% recently. Thirdly, semi-conductor leadership historically
is bullish. If the market were about to top out, they would show head/shoulders patterns.
And fourthly, our September Buy B21 has, as you know, a powerful history.

Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.

11/24/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21.
QQQ, TECL and SOXL are the strongest ETFs at this point. See Table 1.
Their Closing Powers and 5-day moving averages are rising. They show
high Accumulation and bullish blue candle-sticks. But they are already
up a lot. So adding new positions to them may not be so prudent.
Instead, our Stocks' Hotline is suggesting doing some selling if they
reach their upper bands.
The DJI's AROC is in a downtrend.
Its 21-dma is flattening out. This often
results in a shallow decline.
A shallow retreat and consolidation after Thanksgiving week for
DIA would be in keeping with that holiday's tradition. Since 1965,
the DJI has fallen slightly (-0.3%) on average over the next week
and has risen only 45.1% of the time. At this time, the AROC
(annualized rate of change) for the DJI is falling and near zero. It
will need to break its downtrend or the DJI is apt to fall back 2%-3%,
test its support and, perhaps, tag its lower band. That, at least, is what
usually happens when the DJI's AROC is in a downtrend. Another
concern is the relative weakness shown now by the DJI-13, the highest
priced of the DJI-30. Why are the Big Banks not doing better? The
head/shoulders pattern in JPM will probably also need to be aborted for
the DJI to show some renewed strength. The Hourly DJI's DISI-OBV Line
also will need to firm up and break its downtrend.
Biotechs Are Due for A Rally.
Traders might want to consider taking a different approach here in
picking some new long positions in preparation for a December rally.
Most biotechs have fallen back along with the general weakness
of BBH and IBB. But a few have not. I culled through the sector and
found a dozen small biotechs that are making Closing Power new highs
and show good Accumulation and unusual relative strength. Traders
might want to look them over here. As long as their Closing Powers
are rising, I would think that they will do well next month. The Biotechs
below look the most promising to me at this time. However, they are
thinly traded, so buy carefully.

Happy Thanksgiving!

11/21/2017 The Peerless signal remains the very bullish September Buy B21. If history
repeats the DJI will not get a Peerless Sell signal until 26,000 is reached in the
Spring of 2018. That would mean there is another 10% left to the upside.
So, as we give "Thanks" this week for what the stock market has yielded us,
it may be well to realize, believe it or not, that there is still more "gravy" ahead.
Resistances from Recent Highs were reached today.
Expect Breakouts above Flat Resistance Levels Reached Today.
Consider the underlying technicals now. There were 500+ new highs among NYSE and
NASDAQ stocks. So, the advance is broadening again, not narrowing.
IWM and MDY lept to new highs today. They are joining the tech ETFs, SOXL and
TECL ETFs and stocks, which have been the leaders for months.
Sometimes, there is a bit of indigestion next week. But with the NYSE A/D Line and the
DJI so close to new 12-month highs, I would not count on another pullback. New highs
here will probably set off a new surge of Buying. See the Hourly DJI chart below.
While, it's true that Biotechs are not participating and RETL's recovery got stalled
today, we should be buoyed that the potential head/shoulders patterns I mentioned
yesterday are being destroyed and Gold is still not yet rallying to tell us the advance
is getting dangerous.
As for our former Bearish MINCP shorts, a good many of them have recently
broken their Closing Power downtrends and now the number of MINCPs is
down 150 stocks from its level three weeks ago on November 21st. The most
bearish looking ETFs now are the negative ETFs. Even the normally bearish
Day Traders have turned net bullish today. See Table 2.
All things considered, this is a not a market to Sell yet. The bullish month of December is
just ahead. At the very least, we should not sell until there has been a climactic
advance up to the DJI's 3.0% upper band spurred on, perhaps, by Trump's tax cut
finally getting passed by the US Senate.
For now, owning the leading ETFs, as generally suggested by the Power Rank position
of their representatives among the Leveraged ETFs has to be advised. Look at how
very high are their IP21 and AI/200 (positive consistency for Accumulation) are.

QuickSilver Documentation This is for short-term trading leveraged ETFs.
It also provides a useful short-term outlook of these sectors ETF's and the sectors they represewnt
Blue is Bullish and Red is Bearish.
1 Candle-Stick color is shortest-term. This changes when close vis-a-vis opening changes.
So, in stocks or ETFs that advanced a long ways, traders should sell when a higher
opening gives way to a decline that brings a drop below the previous day's close.
2 5-dma AROC and Close-versus- pivot point is next most short-term.
W = warning. Close is below PIVOT-Point.
3 Closing Power trend-direction vs. its 21-dma is next most short-term.
4 IP21 is used to spot divergences and to estimate underlying support.
5 > IP21 falling and below +.15 and its 21-dma is bearish in an over-extended ETF, especially
when its Closing Power is falling and is below its 21-dma.
> IP21 below 07 with AROC below .07 is less likely to bring a rally back up from 21-dma.
