aj,

do you see any similarities to early Aug 01, after the bounce? I do, but you may not. Its just some off beat stuff that I watch, and the similarites are disturbing, even for a bear I would think. 9/11 was 4 weeks later.

Thanks.

If I have targeted those two periods right, in both cases the nasdaq popped for 1-2 days, and then sold off steadily for 5-9 days, the low occuring on the 2nd Tuesday or Wednesday of the next month, and the low was an additional 7-9% below this point. There was then an explosive run for about a week, of at least 10% on the nasdaq.

The same pattern would probably drop the nasdaq to under the 1260 target, after a pop to 1380 or more. The low would be Feb 11 or 12. We would then rally again to above the current levels by about 7%.

I don't think this pattern will hold very closely. I can see a pop and then drop, but I don't see the drop taking that long. Then we would have to rally a couple weeks prior to going to war.

Tough call.
