Chart-o-rama

So you think the precious metals are going to take off because the Government is going to continue to print money until we are completely in a 1930's type recession? As Billy Joel once said:

Bottom-line here is Bottom fishing may be the new down-rigger necessary sport. Most of the charts look like SWC which could have a "bit" more downside. But at these prices....Do the math.

SWC

The same could be said for the battered home builders. TOLL Brothers has held up nicely in the latest downside barrage. Could it be the best in breed going forward. Let's say 3-5 year leaps?TOL

Sometimes its fun to compare two completely opposite stocks like POT and MOS. Potash is best in breed agriculture while Mosaic is primarily a technology advertiser. Wow are these guys and their sectors headed in opposite directions? POT appears to be forming an inverted H&S while MOS could be headed for sub $20 to form a right shoulder of a massive monthly H&S

And then there is oil. Well oil service has just been murdered, but is now the time to be nibbling? Hmmmmm, could be......

OIH

And here is an interesting gas play...ever heard of Lacede? Pretty strong chart long term and check out the 30 day 30 min for the short term strength. The short term action found resistance and support between long-term fib lines...

And lets use oil to segue into China...Petrochina and the FXI may be in the bottom-fish category as well. If oil is going back to $120 I figure these two will follow suit.

FXI

And lastly there is AMZN: inverse H&S going back to highs only to fall hard in the end...

Which is really the longer term picture. Bull run for now which will not set new highs in 2009 and then a BRUTAL collapse of markets lasting much longer than 2 months. The government is merely delaying the inevitable and setting those up smart enough to realize you that if you were long and did not get out your second chance awaits over the next 6-9 months and you had better get out and get short prior to the old highs. But till then it is bull season and the trend is your friend.
