Over a month ago, on November 8th, we published an article demonstrating the Elliott Wave principle‘s ability to predict relatively large moves in the S&P 500. As the move in question progressed we decided to take a closer look into its structure to see what is left of it. The chart below was part of…
Fibonacci Support Helps Copper Bulls Gain Control
Yesterday, we shared our bullish stance on Freeport-McMoran stock. But of course, Freeport-McMoran is pretty much a pure copper play. Therefore, in order for the stock to climb, the price of copper must climb, as well. Similarly to Freeport stock, the price of copper rose between 2016 and 2018 and has been declining for the…
2020 to Bring Long-Awaited Relief to Freeport Investors
It’s been a rough couple of years for U.S.-based copper miner Freeport-McMoran. The stock reached $20.25 a share in the first month of 2018. Now, in the last month of 2019, FCX is hovering around $12.10. Despite the significant recovery from as low as $8.43 in October, the stock is still down 40% since January…
Clorox Stock Can Lose 25% if a Recession Hits in 2020
As a consumer products manufacturer Clorox is one of the so-called “defensive” companies, whose sales are generally not dependent on the state of the economy. However, this doesn’t mean Clorox stock cannot fall during a general market decline or a recession. For instance, it lost 57% in the 1999-2000 rout and over 34% during the…
GBPCAD Can Reach 1.9000 Before the Bears Return
GBPCAD bulls have been on a roll the past four months. The pair is currently trading above 1.7330, up 9.1% from its early-August low of 1.5875. And while the Forex market is not the place to rely on a trend for very long, it is not uncommon for GBPCAD to make large moves in either…
Ubiquiti Can Dive in a 50% Elliott Wave Correction
Headquartered in New York, Ubiquiti Inc. is a communication equipment manufacturer with a market cap of ~$13 billion. The stock is up 85% since its late-August low and is now trading in the vicinity of $200 a share. Understandably, such sharp and fast rallies easily attract people’s attention.

EURAUD Impulse Pattern Keeps the Bulls in Charge
Twenty days ago, EURAUD managed to stop the bleeding and form a bottom at 1.5976. As of this writing the pair trades around 1.6250 after reaching 1.6324 on November 20th.

Disney Stock Forming a Major Elliott Wave Top
The last time we wrote about Disney stock was on April 17th. The company had just announced its own streaming service, sending the price sharply higher to over $130 a share. The interesting part was not the surge itself, but the fact that the Elliott Wave principle managed to prepare us for it a year…
Nikkei 225 Can Lose 30% in Next Corrective Wave
The Japanese Nikkei 225 reached a multi-year high of 24 448 in October 2018. The last time the index traded this high was 27 years ago, in 1991, in the aftermath of the Japanese asset bubble. However, the bulls couldn’t maintain their momentum last year, which opened the door for a decline to 18 949…
Bristol-Myers Stock Pattern Triggers a 37% Surge
Bristol-Myers Squibb and Celgene are expected to merge into a single company before the end of the year. The deal will create the fifth largest pharmaceutical company in the world with sales of approximately $42 billion in 2019. Bristol-Myers fell sharply after the deal was announced in early-January. In late-April, the stock was still in…
Home Capital: Third Wave Lifts Stock 140% in 2019
Home Capital Group is up 17.4% in Toronto today following the company’s third quarter financial report. The mortgage lender beat analysts’ earnings expectations and delivered improvements in other areas, too. In total, HCG is up ~140% in 2019. But things didn’t look so rosy at the beginning of the year. The stock was hovering in…
Walgreens: Did the Market Foresee that KKR Offer?
Anyone who’s been in Elliott Wave analysis long enough has noticed how often some external factor “makes the price move” in the direction the analysis had identified much earlier. We’ve seen it happening in crypto, we’ve seen in happening in stock indices. Now, it happened with Walgreens stock. Walgreens jumped on November 5th after CNBC…
SERV Stock Gave a Warning Before Crashing 40%
The last three weeks have been tough on ServiceMaster shareholders. SERV stock was hovering around $56 a share as October went into its final third. But when the company announced its preliminary Q3 results on October 22nd, all hell broke loose. Apparently, Wall Street didn’t like what it saw, which resulted in a swift and…
S&P 500: Triangle Pattern Leads to New Record High
The S&P 500 reached new all-time highs on the back of better-than-feared earnings season and improved US-China trade prospects. The index closed at 3085 Thursday, bringing its 2019 tally to the impressive 23.1%. But was there a way to predict this move instead of just explaining it after the fact? To paraphrase Warren Buffett, the…
Expedia Disappointed. Elliott Wave Analysis Did Not
Expedia stock is down 25% today after the company’s Q3 results missed expectations. GAAP EPS fell 57 cents short of analysts’ estimates. The revenue figure was anticipated to be $10 million higher than reported, as well. On top of that, Expedia cut its full-year guidance which annoyed Wall Street even more. That is the official…
