As we face the harsh reality that the world around us is shutting down, we must come to terms with just how low this market can go. The 5-wave pattern has failed to fruition which is expected if there is no bounce.
The next target level is 16,834 in about a week if this continues. Until the economy ramps back up, more bad news is on the way.
News
The Fed has thrown a bucket of water onto the forest fire and has not been able to put out the flames of the economy. Death tolls are only growing at an ever-increasing rate as are hospitalizations. Some people still are not understanding the gravity of the situation and are still clustering close to one another at the beach as spring break is kicking off for many states.
It also seems like the flight to gold is beginning to lessen as paper gold (
GLD
) is back on the rise.
The
VIX
is starting to calm down and is showing some bearish divergence. The trend could easily reverse if more fear sets into the market.
The next few days will be scrutinized carefully to see what happens and where we head from here. A push upwards is starting to build-up energy behind the scenes but is not quite ready to interfere with the bears.
Good luck to everyone out there in the market and don't look at your long-term portfolio too long while you stare into the depths of your TP rolls as you search for the meaning to life while in isolation.
