Autumn is the season of big market crashes!

Here is another zerohedge article that got me to thinking about when big crashes happen, I seemed to remember it was always after the Summer and so I had a look at the S&P and I found the following to add to the article:

 

  • The 1987 Black Monday crash occurred in October
  • The Dotcom bubble crash started in Sept 2000, the second leg in Aug 2001
  • The Credit crunch crash started in Nov 2007 but the big crash phase began in Sept 2008
  • The 2011 correction was in Aug & Sept
  • The 2015 correction, forestalled some say by the Fed and a mysterious buyer of US stocks, was in Aug & Sept

Is that really just coincidence or human nature at work?

Hey 

I can hear the voice of Private Frazer even as I type;

"I tell ye laddie - We're doomed!"

 

On the upside - it's Friday evening and I'm about to head to the pub where all life's miseries will be solved!

(Well, until Monday morning, at least)

 

Have a good weekend,

Mac

The only difference is that Frazer was miserable about it where as I don't feel one way of the other about it so long as I can profit (and protect myself).  Forewarned is forearmed as they say, though it is amazing just how many people prefer the ostrich strategy...

    • Content: SP500 - NASDAQ 100 - RUSSELL 2000 - DOW JONES Stock Market Summary: Even though the markets can move higher, our focus is on the short trade setups. The tech stocks that have been leading higher can now be at risk of turning lower and of course this will bring the general market lower. Elliott Wave SP500 resistance 4000 Nasdaq 13000. The markets can move above these numbers, but it doesn’t mean support, or a bullish trend, patience and time is our solution to getting the timing right.  Trading Strategies: Short new lows.
