Exec – Spec
We have been clouded on our short term outlook with an upward bias near term and corrective bias medium term. The chart patterns in 2015 have reflected this muddled upward bias with breakouts to new record high prices in February – which failed. New records again were attained in April – which failed to hold. Now the renewed burst to new record prices in mid-May has once again resulted in a failure thus far with the sharp pullback today. The market has hit new record highs 10 times in the past 3 months, but the lack of follow through has been a concern. The biggest surprise was our incorrect expectation to have the Yen and US stock indices to move inversely – at least not today! Finally our correct forecast of a Yen breakdown (see our KDelta Futures report at The Speculator ExecSpec.net) did result in large Yen profits today, but apparently the worry over a rising US Dollar due to rising interest rates weighed on US stocks. This could still reverse as the Yen moves lower, however, for now we will assume the concern over a sooner than expected rise in interest rates and the higher Dollar will supersede the Yen until either the uptrend line is broken on the downside at 2057 and 2030 basis the June SP 500 Index OR until new highs are again hit at 2134 for a trend continuation move.
