Executives Confident, Investors Scared - Where's the DAX Headed?

by R. Ian Forrest
12/2/2009 1:15:00 PM

Many investors understand that peaks in confidence are the time to get out of a market and take cover. But to have that knowledge is one thing, to use it is another.  This where the Elliott Wave Principle makes the difference: it provides the why of market psychology, and can even help identify the all-important when.

Germany's DAX: FREE Insight Into Europe's Leading Economy

by Nico Isaac
9/16/2009 2:00:00 AM
It's one of the first rules in the book of mainstream economic wisdom: a country's economy is the thermometer which "reads" its stock market's temperature. If financial conditions are heating up, stocks rise; if they are cooling down, stocks fall. Were it so simple -- millionaires wouldn't make up a measly .15% of the global population.

Save Free Markets, Ruin Liberties?
Deflation brings back populism, protectionism and extremism.

by Bill Fox, Senior Bonds Analyst

Remember when the former President Bush said in the fall of 2008 that he needed to suspend free market principles in order to save the free market system? Well, now Angela Merkel, the German chancellor has been quoted as saying, “The excesses of the market that triggered this crisis are forcing us to cross borders and do things we would not normally do.” Sounds familiar...

EURUSD (Forex): What Do You Do When Bearish News Turns "Bullish"?
How could a clearly bearish report be interpreted as bullish news?

A little after 5 AM Eastern (New York) time on Tuesday, July 15, the euro hit a new all-time high against the U.S. dollar: just under $1.6040. Markets move for a reason, goes the conventional wisdom, and it's doubly true when it comes to major moves like that. Interestingly, though, the EURUSD rallied to the new high after an economic report showed that "investor sentiment in Europe's largest economy, Germany, is at a record low." How come? Here's an Elliott wave take on it.

Well, it finally happened. The world famous, bullet-fast, no-speed-limit German autobahns may soon become just like every other highway – boring. Is there a correlation between the trend in stocks and highway speed limits? Let's take a closer look.

Germany's DAX: Wishing On The Fed?

by Nico Isaac
3/12/2008 12:30:00 PM

The conventional wisdom seems to think the U.S. Federal Reserve is to the bourses of Europe and Asia what Botox injections are to movie stars. Consider the recent news stories regarding Germany's DAX rising on "rumors of an emergency rate cut by the Fed." Problem is, the notion that rate cuts will rejuvenate stocks is as false as silicon implants...

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.
