stock market crash

[Jog On]

FTSE is looking very gnarly I must say - but the B word may have a bit to do with that. I'm watching DJIA and SP500 for the big one.

Going back a couple of years on that scale you see that formation many many times, it don't mean tulip.

Classic Head and Shoulders pattern forming, you really don't want to be in the market when that right dip is confirmed with a fall below 7000.

Now you sound like Lance Roberts and Jesse Colombo. There's been increasing volatility for the last few months but it's tricky to call a date with the central banks continuing to pull the strings.

My belief is banks react to markets rather than pull strings.

There's a difference between a crash and a pullback.

Nope.

The market is yet to react to the credit crisis of 2007. The free money pumped into the system since then only kept things on 'hold' so to speak, according to my source.

This is more than a pullback. Yes the market is overbought, everyone knows that. That's when pullbacks occur. What I'm talking about is something else altogether.

A full on crash requires some big external event, like a credit rating downgrade, or banks requiring a bailout. What is the catalyst of this crash? Some kind of global "bad thing" hasn't happened.

Predicting things is hard, especially when they haven't happened yet.

Mmmm. Interesting.
