JP,

>>>> If you look back on the nasdaq since 1995, the cycle is always off the 200 day moving average. 6 times in a row, the Nasdaq has cyclically bounced off it's highs back to the 200 day moving average, before moving up to new highs.

I am in agreement, and to further support your observation, here are the 9 month cycle bottoms since 1995:

JULY 99
OCT 98
JAN 98
APR 97
JULY 96
OCT 95
JAN 95

Now compare those dates with that chart, and you will see a strong correlation. Also notice that the downswing to the 200 DMA/9-month bottom starts approximately 3 months prior, so in this case its right about now.

You know what is amazing is that I have given to all my investor friends, and many of them are brokers, a copy of a similar chart showing the 9-month cycle, and guess where they ended up - YEP IN THE GARGAGE. So when I hear that so many are bearish, Im just befuddled - I must be from Mars.

Hope that was of help.
