CRAWFORD'S AUGUST LETER VITAL SIGNS Those who used the DJIA stoploss are back in 200% SHORT o the drop to 10,700 (hourly print basis) on Monday, May 24, with a new stoploss at 11,500 (closing basis). Those keying off the S&P500 Cash have remained 200% SHORT without interruption as their stop is at 1520. LOWER THAT STOP NOW TO 1420.00 (closing basis). We believe that the Greatest Crash of This Century has begun and that the next 30 days will bring financial meltdown to a large portion of earthly kingdoms. Based upon unwieldy debt structures and aggravated by Y2K fears and breakdowns, ? the god of War will reign at will.?August 2, 1999 Vol. 99/08 AND NOW, WE PRESENT ?THE KING OF THE MONGOLS!? Last month, our headline bespoke:??THE FINAL TOP IS NOW!? We then proceeded to give numerous indications from Technical Market Analysis why this could easily be so, including Breadth Statistics failing repeatedly, Put/Call ratios at the lowest level in 9 years, and ARMS or TRIN Index, and other Sentiment measures commonly followed at multi-year extremes, Since July 16, the Dow Industrials have dropped 554 points or about 5%; the S&P September Future is now down about 7%; the NASDQ around 8%. The Dow Jones Transportation and Utility averages did not budge on this final rally in the Majors. The Utility Average broke its June low last Thursday and the Transports are holding barely above theirs (a down hour could easily take it out, adding another nail to the coffin). The NYSE Advance-Decline disparity has deepened to levels seen only in 1929 and 1973-74, but then, almost ALL measures of Value and Sanity that have EVER existed have been superceded in this Incredible Mania! Take notice that the Average Bear Market returns Price/Earnings ratios to around 6-10, currently 35 on the S&P 500. The Market has not broken a previous yearly Low in 16 years. The fact that these statistics do not strike fear in Investors and Money Managers alike is symptomatic that the Old and Wise are has-beens. How do you think they got Old and Wise? By losing fortunes in their 20?s & 30?s and learning how to CUT LOSSES! A completely NEW CLASS will soon have the opportunity to become OLDER and WISER. Isn?t LIFE GRAND?! ?And there shall be signs in the Sun, and in the Moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men?s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. ?And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. ?Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, ?? Hey, it may be OLD, but it sounds appropriate to the Here & Now! Especially with the NOSTRADAMUS quatrain: ?In the year 1999 and seven months (old style), From the skies shall come a great King of Terror, to raise again the King of the Mongols (China?), Before and after, Mars (God of War) shall reign at will. Maybe he was referring to the NATO Terror destroying the Chinese embassy, and arousing their dander. Most analysts believe it is linked to the SOLAR ECLIPSE and GRAND CROSS of August 11 (Mars actually completes its contact with the Eclipse on August 13). However, the strongest moment for Major Accident or Outright WAR is Saturday, August 7 where the third T-Square forms with Sun opposing Uranus, both Square Mars. These aspects are in extremely tight orb of only 7 minutes of arc (less than 1/12 of one degree) and occur within 4 hours of real time! EXPLOSIVE! In addition, a new book and web site by John Mini call attention to the 13 th as a most critical End/Beginning in the AZTEC calendar for which those indigenous peoples have patiently waited for several centuries. Remember the market TOP in 1987 came on a 5-planet conjunction that was a most important date in the Mayan Calendar. Then comes another Grand Cross on August 16-17. We have not contacted ANY researcher who has ever seen a Double Grand Cross in ANY of their research data. These patterns are unprecedented in all of recorded history and through major instability, will rattle the foundations of Nature and Society. Needless to say, we will remain 200% SHORT during all these pyrotechnics, and hope that we can at least protect ourselves and clients from the most wrenching of what appears to await our collective consciousness! WAKE UP EARLY AND AVOID THE RUSH!!

...so what you're saying is "wait and it will eventually happen just like we said it was going to happen last week." How quaint for you all. I would point out that other effects were caused by the eclipse that will probably have more profound effects upon the world. Notably the fact that the temperature drop was around 20 degrees in some areas... figure that out: On a nice, normal day the moon cuts a swath some 2000 miles long by 60 miles wide (or so). The temperature is dropped 20 degrees for the entire time. Q. What kind of impact does this have on the planet? A. A large one. But to me this seems more like something that could be studied by a geologist than leaving it to the general science of Astrology. But once again, this is just my opinion. Of course that opinion is based upon the mathematics that say roughly 120K sq feet were effected, with a height of up to 70 miles (or more) which may have impact upon our fair planet. Roughly 39 billion cubic feet of gas was reduced 20 degrees... naw, no effect could possibly be predicted from this. Have you ever stuck a freeze pop into a cup of warm water and watched the geothermic reaction? ... as far as spells are concerned; are you referring to Voodoo, Wicha, Black Magic, or even elementary curses. I would warn you that I am warded against all of these by a magical thing called a "nic" (and of course distance). LOL ; ) "One should not be so smug about ridiculing others so soon!!! For all I know, you may be adversely affected in some "unexpected" way before 1999 is out." ... I once again do not need a star chart to tell you that undoubtedly something bad will happen to me this year. So what? Don't sweat the small stuff - and its ALL small stuff. I didn't mean to necessarily ridicule as much as I would agree with heinz's conundrum theory. If everyone were an Astrologer the world would undoubtedly fall apart (as did every society based upon this general science). I think of all cyclical things this is most true. But then I am enjoying seeing what people think will happen and then seeing what really happens... this is sorta entertaining. So don't think I think it is all bad. :)
