How to Invest Within Kress Cycle 2014 Stock Market Crash / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
Recently I asked a question that I suspect many followers of the Kress cycles have asked at some point. Here it is:
"I have been following your discussion on the Kress cycles for years. When I combine the market analysis from other [financial analysis] sources I am somewhat perplexed, however. I would desperately desire to make a keen strategic maneuver in the next 24 months with my retirement funds to, first, avoid the next crash predicted by the "hard down" phase of the Kress cycle. But then secondly, I'd like to be in the market to take full advantage of the ensuing bull market.

Markets Vanish - 'In a Flash' / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
The same title cheered in the new years of 2011 and 2012 ("Markets Vanish - "In a Flash"," January 4, 2011 and January 8, 2012). These warnings described how quickly, and with no foresight by participants, markets evaporated in 1914. In 2013, markets have never been more susceptible to such a bolt of recognition. This is a consequence of such imperturbable faith in the prices set by besotted bureaucrats. What follows is a quick look at the nasty, brutish, and short results from government manipulations after such policy failures.

Stock Market Crash Fractal Pattern Complete / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
It appears that the first crash fractal is complete. SPX and the rest of the market should resume the decline into the close. The next item to be challenged is the trading channel trendline and hourly mid-Cycle support at 1422.58. It is hard to say how much progress may be made before the close today, but if the SPX is in a minute or minor wave [iii], then we should see a sizeable gap down on Monday morning to move us on our way to the trifecta of supports, the Orthodox Broadening Top, the 200-day moving average and daily mid-Cycle support, all at 1388.00.

The Coming Derivatives Panic That Will Destroy Global Financial Markets / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
John Rolls Submits, Michael Snyder writes: When financial markets in the United States crash, so does the U.S. economy. Just remember what happened back in 2008. The financial markets crashed, the credit markets froze up, and suddenly the economy went into cardiac arrest. Well, there are very few things that could cause the financial markets to crash harder or farther than a derivatives panic. Sadly, most Americans don't even understand what derivatives are. Unlike stocks and bonds, a derivative is not an investment in anything real. Rather, a derivative is a legal bet on the future value or performance of something else. Just like you can go to Las Vegas and bet on who will win the football games this weekend, bankers on Wall Street make trillions of dollars of bets about how interest rates will perform in the future and about what credit instruments are likely to default. Wall Street has been transformed into a gigantic casino where people are betting on just about anything that you can imagine. This works fine as long as there are not any wild swings in the economy and risk is managed with strict discipline, but as we have seen, there have been times when derivatives have caused massive problems in recent years.

Stock Market Cup Pattern Similarities to the 1987 Crash / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
Dear Friends,
I have been struck with the similarities between today and the period in 1987 leading up to the crash. The oversized rally into the Friday high evoked even more correlations. We had a Cup with Handle formation in the SPX going into October, 1987. As of Friday, I believe that the current SPX also has a Cup with Handle formation.

Stock Market Last Push Higher Before the Big Collapse? / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
With most of Wall Street on vacation, those few traders manning their desks are taking advantage of the low volume to push the market sharply higher. This, combined with a large move up by the Euro has pulled the entire risk trade up forcing the US Dollar lower.

Unfolding Stock Market Crash Pattern / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
-- VIX extended another zigzag into its Master Cycle low on Wednesday and appears ready to advance above its Head & Shoulders neckline near 20.00. The second zigzag confirms this formation as a Cup with Handle pattern with a potential target above 27.00. This, in turn, may set up an even larger Head & Shoulders pattern that could propel Wave III to as high as 48.00, its prior high in 2011. This is setting up well for a crash pattern in stocks in the next couple of weeks.

Countdown To Dollar, Stock Market Total Financial Collapse / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
Aside from a clear unwillingness to admit the reality of epic failure and total defeat, the powers-that-be insist upon believing that they can still pull magic rabbits from their empty hat of totalitarian deceptions.
In addition to monitoring the VIX, which is another means by which to track the efforts of a corrupt Fed and Treasury, we present the Dow Gold ratio-charts below, which add yet another real-time measure in monitoring REALITY vs. the Ponzi charade otherwise known as the global debt-based fiat currency system of political economics.

Stock Market Crash to Start This Morning! / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
The fractals are getting shorter, which means that the market is gaining momentum as it declines. Let’s examine the fractals making up the waves in the chart.
First, a point of clarification. I view the October 5 high as the Orthodox high, although the cycles called for the high on September 14. In my opinion, the Elliott Waves fell in line by producing a truncated 5th wave on October 5.

Marc Faber Warns Global Stock Markets Will Implode / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
In this "Squawk Box" excerpt, Marc Faber warns investors to prepare for an eventual "'reset" of the global financial system:
“The market is going down because corporate profits will begin to disappoint, the global economy will hardly grow next year or even contract, and that is the reason why stocks, from the highs of September of 1,470 on the S&P, will drop at least 20 percent, in my view.”

Next Stock Market Crash Will Be Bigger Than 1987 "Black Monday" / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
Martin Hutchinson writes: Friday was the 25th anniversary of Black Monday. On October 19, 1987 the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 508 points, or a mind-numbing 22.6%.
How bad was it?...
Let's put it this way, if it happened today the Dow would drop 2,965 points on the session to finish at roughly 10,158. You can imagine the depression.

Financial Crash, Econcomic Crash, We Have Been Warned Part2 / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
Voltaire said in 1729: “All paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value – ZERO.” WE were warned – almost 3 centuries ago. Bernanke announced QE3 on September 13, 2012 – the next step in the process of pushing the dollar down toward its intrinsic value. Not only is the Fed making a commitment to purchase $40 Billion per month of MBS (mortgage backed securities) from large banks with “newly printed money,” it is also making an open ended commitment – there is no end date. Ultimately this is highly inflationary for the American public and very beneficial for the banks holding what is often referred to as “toxic waste” (MBS) that can be dumped onto the Fed at full face value. Hopefully the bailouts to the banks will allow them to loan that newly created money into the economy so it benefits real people and “Main Street.” Regardless, we have been warned about the consequences of printing money and the resulting consumer price inflation.
