The Mania: From Wall Street to Main Street

By special permission, we are able to present the following chart from Robert Prechter's Elliot Wave Theorist, July 2001 newsletter. This chart dramatically identifies the mania we've seen in the NASDAQ for the last six years. Because the text may be hard to read, I have listed the headlines below the chart. Be sure to visit our Elliot Wave Resource Page for additional insight from this group.
