Philipp,

I would find it quite unusual to have a significant correction/crash without a decent counter-rally; sort of just slowly rolling over and then falling off the cliff. I don't remember any correction like that historically or in recent years in currencies or stock markets.

Actually, we DID have the counter-rally from the initial sell-off from highs in the Russell and Wilshire indices. The large cap indices tried to do the same thing from April's highs, but shot off into lala-land instead. Whether this was due to fraidy-cat foreign inflows or the concerted actions of New-Era Pin-heads, I cannot say, but the charts have more or less already made the requisite initial rally that "normally" precedes a major contraction of P/Es.
