This is one very ugly chart with a 10% drop on the Nasdaq and the Russell but that's GOOD news as it's about where we expect the Central Banksters to step in and do something, before things turn more ugly.
That's why we weren't pressing our bearish bets last week and we took our very aggressive TZA bets off the table in our Short-Term Portfolio because, with the indexes down this far, we expect at least a weak bounce to start the week – the question is – what happens after that?
Very simply, per our 5% Rule™, when the market drops 5%, we expect a 1% retrace and, in the case of the Nasdaq and the Russell, we expect a 2% retrace for a "weak bounce." Also, as you can see on our Big Chart, we have some serious support on the Dow at our "Must Hold" lijne at 16,000. There's pretty much no way it can fail that without a bounce.
