US Presidential Cycle and Stock Market Trend 2019

Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2019 Mar 06, 2019 - 06:41 AM GMT

The US Presidential cycle pattern has proved REMARKABLY ACCURATE in terms of flagging future stock market price action as an except from my last in depth look at stocks illustrates:

Dow Stock Market Trend Forecast 2018

The basic pattern for the US Presidential cycle is for a strong election year and post election year, followed by weak Mid-term then a strong pre-election year.

The trend to date is clearly continuing to prove remarkably inline with the US presidential cycle. Which does not bode well for the remainder of the 2018 i.e. implies stocks are going to remain stuck in this trading range for the WHOLE of 2018! Which is one of the reasons why I was bearish for the prospects for the stock market at the start of the year.

The updated chart shows how accurate the US Presidential cycle continues to prove to be, and thus should not be ignored in terms of implying a VERY STRONG YEAR FOR STOCKS FOR 2019.

This is the second in a series of articles that concludes in a detailed trend forecast for the Stock Market Dow Stocks Index covering the period from March 2019 to September 2019.
