A Six-pack of Hindenburg Omen’s since Oct. 15
The Hindenburg Omen chalked up the Sixth Signal last night.
-
The probability of a move greater than 5% to the downside after a confirmed Hindenburg Omen within the next 41 days after its occurrence is 77%, the probability of a panic sellout is 41% and the probability of a real big stock market crash is 25%.
-
The occurrence of a confirmed Hindenburg Omen does not necessarily mean that the stock market will go down.
-
On the other hand there has never been a significant stock market decline in history that was not preceded by a confirmed Hindenburg Omen.
The confirmed Hindenburg occurred on October 17th, so we should expect at least a 5% correction in the S&P 500 by November 27th…in time for Thanksgiving. I wish this would get it over and done with before then so that we can enjoy our turkey with family and friends. Let’s hope that rule #2 applies this time and that all of this was just a shot across the bow for now.
Best regards, Ian.
