i am confused. here's what I see: ". . .Puetz) used eight previous crashes in various markets from the Holland Tulip Mania in 1637 through the Tokyo crash in 1990. He noted that market crashes tend to be lumped near the full moons that are also lunar eclipses. In fact, he states, the greatest number of crashes start after the first full moon after a solar eclipse –when that full moon is also a lunar eclipse . . Once the panic starts, Puetz notes, it generally lasts from two to four weeks. The tendency has been for the markets to peak a few days ahead of the full moon, move flat to slightly lower --waiting for the full moon to pass. Then on the day of the full moon or slightly after, the brunt of the crash hits the marketplace." There are two lunar eclipses scheduled for 1999, on January 31 and July 28. There are two solar eclipses scheduled, on February 16 and August 11. If a 1999 crash is to take place within the above discovered parameters as delineated by Mr. Puetz, such a crash should begin between January 25 to February 3 or between July 22 to July 31. When we say "such a crash should begin," we mean a top of some kind leading to a decline of 35-50% within a few short weeks could begin within those time frames. stockmarketcycles.com this says to me that a decline could begin next week but will likely culminate in August. "a few weeks" does not mean a couple months to me. IF we are to even have a selloff during this period which, in this mkt, is anybody's guess.
