The Two Charts I'm Watching for Signs of a Bottom Dear Money & Crisis Reader, Yesterday's action was quite positive. Stocks roared higher with the Dow closing up 11% for its largest single day gain since 1933. Across the board, the buying was extremely strong, with 90% of trading volume being up by end of the day. However, we are not out of the woods yet. As Wall Street veteran and market strategist Bill King recently noted, throughout history there are two only two other instances in which stocks crashed this rapidly: the crashes of 1929 and 1987. Both crashes featured a swift double-digit decline of over 20% in a matter of days… Both crashes featured a MASSIVE two-day rally that saw stocks rise 20%... And both crashes then saw stocks roll over to either retest the lows (1987) or fall to new lows (1929). The crash of 1929 saw stocks lose 34% in the span of a few days before staging a massive two-day rally of 18%. Stocks then dropped to new lows. The crash of 1987 saw stocks fall 22% in a single day. They then staged a massive two-day rally of nearly 20% before falling to retest the lows. I'm giving this history lesson for an important reason. Yesterday's massive bounce doesn't mean the lows are in. We are still in "watch and wait" mode for the markets. |
