DOW down 275 to close at da bottom tick @ DOW 9,269.50. Likewise, SPX closed down 26.31 to close @ SPX 1,078.30. NDX gets creamed 5.52%, down 80 to close at NDX 1,374.58 SPX Long TITAN TA gets shaved in half over night and this reaffirms that the short term low in this cycle is TODAY, October 29, with tomorrow as a possible + 1 day carryover. With cycle inversion we then run into a cycle high on November 1st, +/- 1 trading day. And a one day whipsaw action such as today sends the skittish packing and right back to inversion in Rydex SPX TA. NYSE Spot Gold closed up $1.60 to close at $278.70. Overnight spot gold trading at $280.50. XAU was trading up solidly all day but closed up a paltry 9 cents to close at XAU 53.03. I have been anticipating one last slamdown to shake staunch gold bullz out...into da full moon on November 1st, +/- 1 day. But this window is fast approaching, and if we open up strong in the morning in gold and gold stocks, we need to see weakness develop into the afternoon or this script might be taking on another dimension. That is, we must entertain the possibility that the train might decide to leave the station early... and we don't want to go chasing down a runaway train... If we do see the reversal in mid day and gold gold stocks close back down, then I will be looking for break down below XAU 50 into the gap in the XAU 48.20 area. If this confirms with Rydex TA below 22 million... BACK UP THE TRUCK FOR MAYBE THE LAST IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO GET LONG GOLD STOCKS near da LOWS... and Rydex Precious Metals Fund. I will maintain my cash position in Rydex anticipating this move positioning into 100% Precious Metals Fund over the next few days. This analysis is subject to dynamic revision going forward.
