Historically, Indian markets used to react to whatever happened in the US. That's what the subject line suggests. Does it still hold good? I have tried to examine S&P 500, one of those indices that we often refer to (along with Nasdaq and Dow). Earlier to this, I have been analysing and posting the trends in Nifty and Bank Nifty. See my discussion on Head &...
In my continuing series of the Head & Shoulder pattern that has emerged, I had given a view that short term recoveries are part of a bearish trend, consolidating the right side shoulder.

And due to its other negative policies, economically and politically the trends have reversed. And if this was not enough, the global trends have appeared that are bringing down the equity markets worldwide. The...
A contrarian view (to the bulls): When we are in bullish markets, we do not like to see indicators that could lead to a bearish signal. Its the emotional part of our investing.
