OMG! it just hit me, the dog howled twice and that means a man is about to die.
The belief that dogs have supernatural or psychic abilities has a long history and is found in many cultures. One of the almost universal beliefs is the conviction that the howling of a dog is a death omen.
Some people trace the association between dogs howling and death back to ancient Egypt. In that time and place, the god that took care of the dead was Anubis, and he was represented as having the head of a dog. Thus, a howling dog was believed to be calling a soul to Anubis.
In Ireland, it was thought that dogs howl because they hear the spectral pack of hounds that lead their riders on the wild hunt through the sky collecting the souls of the dying.
An ancient Norse legend has a more amusing explanation. It speaks of the Freyja, the goddess of love, fertility, and magic, but also death. When she is acting as the goddess of death, she rides the crest of a storm on her chariot pulled by giant cats. Because cats are dogs’ natural enemies, it is said that dogs would start to howl when they sensed the approach of Freya and her mystical felines.

Take a 260 day/52 week/12 month trendline according to your preference.
Or a moving average equivalent if that's your thing.
Note a certain rhythm in many markets at that scale. Allow for it and see breaks from the usual rhythm.
Markets sell so far - it's a buying opportunity.
They sell a bit further, the buying opportunity comes but later and after further declines.
Behind the news we don't receive a memo of what's going down. Support and resistance beats market based news every time. It informs me subject to the lmitations to how well I can read it.
End of half year is usually a pivot of some value in figuring out what is what.

Thanks silver66 for the introduction to Mike Green. I find his thinking, especially on passive investing, very informative. Now that pro-passive funds giant Blackrock is running the US Treasury...whoah Nellie! I like Raoul Pal over at Real Vision too.
Just to recap the US general narrative being pushed a'la "V" shape recovery: 1) It was the best economy ever prior to the virus. 2) The communist Chinese virus is an external event not structural. 3) The economy will bounce back hard and fast because it wasn't a structural event. 4) Markets are forward looking, therefore the bounce back to near all-time highs is justified.
Now some reality. 1) Labor force participation rates were nowhere near their 2000 peaks. Banks and hedge funds were in trouble a'la repo rates blowing out to 10% in September 2019....before the virus. 2) Yes the virus is an external event. 3) The external event has caused an internal structural shift. The US economy is 70% consumption, and baby boomers make up 50% of it. Does anyone really think that their behaviors aren't going to change. The most at-risk group ain't going to the malls to shop, travel to tourist sites or take a cruise for vacation. 4) Based on the numbers above, the markets have come up too far and too fast.
At least 35% (0.75*0.50) of the US economy has been negatively impacted in some way, not including knock-on effects. Activity and revenues have dropped, some of which will never return IMO. Couple that with most western populations beginning to contract, I don't think asset valuations are justifiable. I don't like real estate, stocks, corporate bonds, sovereign bonds and bills...nothing. As investors, what do we turn to for a decent return in the next 10 years?
Good luck out there

Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get me.
There have been some really good hits along the seven years since. And another update is timely.
It shows what it shows.
There are some changes evolved into the picture of these two cycles over the bottoming period. One is a tendency for multiple highs where single highs were more the thing. Similar but less so for lows.
For example the blue could be shifted back to previous interim high, or even possibly forwards to following interim high, from where I've set it.
The red similar but I see just two iterations of it in recent gold price movement.
It's hard to diminish the importance of the signifance of the last turns (using a refreshed setting for these pair as shown). However ... would shifting the red cycle back by interim low work better? I like both but focused upon the more dramatic low here.
So onwards we go in time towards the coming what exactly? Three highs and pair of lows maybe? The usual mixture of information and confusion that listening to the market involves.
You have to be able to function with fuzzy and partial conclusions in this game, always doing the best you can with what you've got.
Losing one's parent is hard on the emotions. Losing him to dementia makes it doubly hard. Many on the boards have experienced that event. Our best to you
