Comment 11/15/07 
In my Stock Index Timing .com commentary I had indicated that I would consider moving to a "BUY" on the market on a retest.
I am NOT moving to a buy on the market at this time. I remain NEUTRAL on the market. See further info in my commentary on Saturday.
 
Good luck and good trading!  George

INCUMBENT REPUBLICAN ELECTION YEARS

I turned NEUTRAL on the market on Friday's close (11/9), exited shorts on my managed mutual fund accounts (see managed program), and am looking to move to a BUY on the market, possibly in the coming week.

In my Stock Index Timing .com web site, every month or so I run a review of the current market's position relative to the Presidential election year. This past week, I made a special run through my Presidential Election year comparisons and FOCUSED ON NOVEMBER TO MARCH BEFORE THE ELECTION WHEN THERE WAS AN INCUMBENT REPUBLICAN. The conclusion of my analysis last month, that we could go to a low in November or December contrary to the expected seasonal strength, was a factor in my staying short the market. This analysis was an important factor in my now turning NEUTRAL on the market. The election winner is not the focus. A Republican  incumbent during the election year is the focus.

At the bottom of this page, I post the following conclusion:

The conclusion from my previous interview with Ike on October 29 of all Presidential Election years was that, in spite of the strong seasonal, we "could have a down November or December." 

NOW, after reviewing only years before Presidential elections where a Republican is the incumbent, I feel strongly that we could have a low in NOVEMBER and the market could turn up in the coming few days and hold an up trend through at least January.

 

============================================

In the following charts I have the coming Presidential election day centered in the chart and the current Dow is in RED. The comparison election year is centered in the bottom of the chart so the comparison election day matches the chart position of the 2008 election day. The winner of the election is noted in the box at the bottom right.

Focus on the months of November to April of the comparison election year.
