Look at the huge change since mid-July and then return back to neutral last month.

In that same way, Id like to point out that these updates reflect my beliefs.

I find the market update information useful for my trading, so I do the work each month and am happy to share that information with my readers.

However, if your beliefs are not similar to mine, then this information may not be useful to you.

Thus, if you are inclined to go through some sort of intellectual exercise to prove one of my beliefs wrong, simply remember that everyone can usually find lots of evidence to support their beliefs and refute others.

Simply know that I admit that these are my beliefs and that your beliefs might be different.

These updates cover 1) the market type (first mentioned in the April 30, 2008 edition of Tharps Thoughts), 2) the debt statistics for the US, 3) the five-week status on each of the major US stock market indices, 4) our four-star inflation-deflation model, and 5) tracking the US dollar.

I also write a report on the strongest and weakest areas of the overall market as a separate SQN Report.

Significant market changes may mean the SQN Report comes out more than once a month.

Its called operating out of a low level of consciousness and that can bring on a lot of problems.

There is no sign of the pandemic getting any better or safer and it looks like the third wave is starting.

The United States has more than one new Covid-19 case per second and the total cases amount to about 9.4 million.

Of those, we now have about 231,000 deaths.

Translated, thats about 2.8 of the US population who have caught the virus and of them, about 2.4 have died.

My guess is that the Federal Reserve is propping up the stock market.

But Im now keeping track of bankruptcies and foreclosures to get a better picture.

Many of those companies are likely to face anti-trust lawsuits in the near future so who knows if those gains will continue in the future.

The unofficial debt went from 153 trillion to 80 trillion and now is listed at 155.3 trillion.

This first table will track bankruptcies, foreclosures, and employment figures bankruptcies are getting worse but employment is improving.

Unemployment has improved by about 3 million and we have about 50,000 more millionaires in the US than we did last month.

If you look at the price chart pattern for each of those periods, you can probably tell the direction.

The question now is will the Feds unlimited bailout make that March low the bottom or have seen just the beginning of something very nasty or a great opportunity for traders who know what they are doing.

The SP made 15 all-time highs during the month of August, but the last new high was September 2, 2020.

At this point, I expect that COVID-19 will be with us for a couple of years and the huge impact weve seen so far will just be a drop in the bucket by the time its over.

You can also see that October was not very kind to the markets.
