About Our Newsletter
Weekly Market Strategies is a weekly on-line market letter commenting on the economy, economic indicators and the fundamental and technical aspects of the stock market.
Technical indicators and cycles are used to analyze the stock market and to predict the expected direction of the market during the next week and also the next few weeks and months.
We accurately predicted weeks in advance the October 2007 top and warned our subscribers about the coming sell-off. We recommended the purchase of put options to protect one’s portfolio. We also accurately predicted months in advance that the market would bottom late February/early March 2009 (actual date was March 9).
We also predicted in advance most of the tops and bottoms in the market during the past two years. Our past predictions can be found in our past news letters located in the past news letter file.
