Market WrapUp for Thursday, August 21
Prognosis for the Labor Day Season
by Martin Goldberg

The recent correction in gold stocks has shot down the long term Elliott pattern proposed here several times. Wave 3 is not underway; but rather the chart suggests we are in a multi-year wave 2 pattern. Here is the chart of the $HUI in all its (now) mis-labeled glory. Whereas “proposed wave 3” looked to be in progress, unfortunately (for gold bulls), the chart is still somewhere in the wave 2 correction. By all logical accounts, Wave III is still in progress. Note that the low made last week has not breached the lows made throughout the wave 2 correction. A viscous correction? Yes. The end of the bull market? No. Remember, if the daily market action can spoil your day, your commitments are too great. Full article
