NW: I didn't understand that you had said that we had made a low in October. Your following analysis
doesn't make it any clearer to me now. Is there a 144 month cycle or isn't there? If yes, it would certainly seem to me that the US stock market make an important low in mid October 1999.

NW: I agree. Studying your previous anaslysi, I did get the impression that you liberally anoint many chart patterns with the Head & Shoulders mantle. I think most market technicians have this tendency. Perhaps you have had good success with this approach? I found it more helpful to use very well defined and strict parameters to categorize market
patterns. The authentic H&S pattern is actually rather rare. The almost look alikes can be called quasi-H&S which usually fail are are often found as part as a Elliott Wave IV correction.

NW: I have no problems saying that it doesn't look like a proper H&S pattern to me.

NW: FIrst of all, you have stated all these mutual aspects backwards. The faster planets always aspect the slower moving planets and are always stated accrodingly, i.e. NOT Pluto sextile Venus but Venus is sextile Pluto. Also, all the aspects you have listed are mostly small events, not the stuff that would make for a important Bond change in
trend. The two related big aspects I am looking at for the important change in trend for T-Bonds is found in the aspects to the USA natal chart. Please don't ask me to post the USA natal data publicly.

NW: Interest rate hikes in the short term usually make bonds go lower as dealers see their cost
of carry go up they liqudate longs. Longer term, as higher rates slow the economy, bonds become
a safe haven to preserve investment income. If the Fed only raises rates 25 basis points, it may be perceived that this is not enough to slow the economy sufficiently. Then bond players will worry that
more rate hikes are coming, causing the bond market to go lower in anticipation of a higher cost of
funds.

In other words, if we don't have a rally before years end, the breakdown of the large rising wedge put the odds in favor of declining prices in the future. and breakdowns out of rising wedges tend to be fast ones. (like a W:3s ).
