I have been a proponent of election cycles and decennial cycles but am a bit perplexed at the moment.

They pretty much called the June low.

Election cycle chart. If you shift this a little to the right you get June low and Sep high.

It does imply eventually higher into year end.

The decennial chart had a similar low. It even has a dip about now but mostly up.

However DeMark and other prognosticators see things more bearish.

And I have mid 2013 as a low for XJO and late 2014 in the US.

Perhaps these are minor blips in an upmove!

I do suspect after 3.5 years up, a bigger correction must be due sooner than later.

Bull markets can be longer than 5 years sometimes but not often.

If this bull had started this year rather than 2009 I would be more comfortable with a move up into 2017 without much retracement but...
