Sunday morning TA on major markets first
love these InvBusDaily futures charts in 2nd section

S&P
last week I claimed the S&P had a first bout with a breakout from the downchannel... some guy disagreed with me... the big rise on thursday confirmed it for me, which was a second loud bang just above the upper boundary of the downchannel... S&P wants to rally, led by its techs... for those who like to review daily stochastics, check out the bullish divergence for the S&P now... last tuesday when S&P fell sharply, its daily stochastx did not drop much, leaving a clear stochastx chart trending up, even as the S&P dropped... clear bullish divergence of the index closing strong in the face of downdraft

TBonds
a clear Cup&Handle has formed with 30yr bond... the Cup reaches from midDecember to earlyFebruary... its Handle of Doubt was dealt all thru Feb... now it is poised to reverse in a big way... this will support stocks... but a word of weird caution... the 30yr TBond is a strange crosseyed federal bastard child now... it is now dominated by federal refunding, not a responsive mechanism to inflation and economy strength factors

TNotes
got a clear W-pattern of reversal... like a C&H without a flat bottom... even still, it is reversal pattern that also is poised to reverse now after its Handle of Doubt gets resolved... has been working to resolve for two weeks now... this mechanism is our real one that resonds now to inflation expectations and econ strenk... see comment on crude oil for confirmation

Currencies
the USdollar is stabilizing nicely... the JYen has seen some strange strenk in last couple weeks... probably due to the market spitting in the face of the manipulative efforts of G7 attempts..... the Euro continues to weaken, altho a semblance of stabilizing is showing itself... I expect the JYen to give some back, and Euro to rise slightly, thus giving even more stability to US$... the recent US Fed rate hike had to be absorbed by currencies, and it seems almost done

we need this whole dimension to be quiet... when it is NOT quiet, all hell breaks loose in financial markets worldwide... beware of the US$-JYen-Euro triangle

Crude Oil, Heating Oil
a loud band reversal occurred last week with crude oil... it coincided with announcements to increase production, followed by the shutdown of a medium Texas refinery... but with Saudis on the side of increased production, I see a top here in the low 30's... I see oil heading back to mid/high 20's... big deal, say tech followers?.. yes, big deal since this whole arena influences bonds, and bonds influence the entire stock market, mainly S&P though... inflation fears will subside from oil's back derricks

more pronounced is Heating Oil's reversal... with winter almost over, and crude oil peaked, a broken upchannel in heating oil is clear... this also assists in reducing inflation fears and expectations

Gold & Silver
gold and silver are quiet, flat, stable... confirms dwindling inflation concerns

Coffee
the long established relationship between coffee and fiberoptic buildout is not working for us finally... coffee growers have finally seen the bottoming of their price erosion... with this erosion of their hillside soil ending, the land can now support vast fiberoptic pipes to supply them information about rainfall, cartel hits, assassinations, and soccer scores... very bullish for JDSU

seriously, the only thing that excites me more than QCOM rising, interest rates subsiding, is that lovely Alicia leaving behind honey on my hand
/ Jim Willie

interesting comment I think about the oil producing nations... THEY NOW HAVE THEIR WEALTH RESTORED IN THE SHORTERM... in 1997 when Greenspan handed them the Asian Meltdown, oil prices were in the $12-16 per barrel range... little developing nations who pump and ship oil did not have a strong balance sheet... now they do, and are more protected from shock waves like Greenspan raising rates too high, leading US$ to become too strong

Techie-

On the psychology of QCOM....how many times has QCOM popped up 8, 12 or 15 bucks on rumors of China, Nokia, etc. over the last two months? Several times. It wants to rip, when we get sound, solid information of a done deal, and confirmation that the stagnant revenue picture is over, she's gonna be off to the races.

Have a great time in Cuba, you bastard. Interestingly, I was in Mexico, last time QCOM went on a tear, I picked up a paper in LAX, and I was absolutely stunned. My girlfriend asked me if I was feeling OK, ohhhhh ya.

Oh yeah. When I last went to Cuba for Christmas QCOM shot from 440 to the stratosphere. I got back January 3rd. You may be interested to know that I'm going back to Cuba on March 24th.

Should I have US Embassy officials hold you captive in Cuba while QCOM runs up while you are gone,and let you come home when it stabilizes? Happy Easter.....<<<G>>>
Just kidding.................Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrront Carrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
