I agree that the Chinese are very likely cooking the books. But many areas of our market are behaving as if China does matter greatly. And even if their GDP is 4.5% instead of 9% that is still a number that we would dearly love to have for ourselves so I can't assume that it doesn't matter in the long run. Having said that, markets and stocks do, IMO, often tend to behave according to technical chart analysis as opposed to what their fundamentals may dictate. Which brings me back to the "why" of that fact and my interest in time cycles. Cyclic behavior has been identified in everything from the markets to biological phenomenon and animal studies. And these time cycles have long ago been correlated with a field of study that is ages old. And human psychology (which drives markets) is definitely influenced by various time cycles. A hidden pursuit of Wall Street involves the study of these cycles and the implications for markets, stocks, commodities, etc. of the predictive nature of these time cycles.
