Central Banks vs. Cycles

The Central Banks have struck back, with BoJ's move to negative interest rates on Friday. I'm not convinced the dollar yen rally is sustainable. But with a net-line buy on the weekly chart, we have to respect the potential for more USDJPY advance. The next few sessions are important for the currency, as we'll see if this move was simply a one-and-done or a part of a larger trend.  More discussion inside!

I'll believe the dollar yen rally more if gold turns lower.

The S&P 500 AD oscillator might be the best argument for the bulls.

Weekly NotSoUp Date

We are at one of those junctures where the Spiral Calendar gives us a huge advantage over other participants. We have the unique perspective now of understanding the true (and large) degree of this decline.
